What should I do if I have peeled off the Evra patch in the bath?

Good morning. I am during the use of contraceptive patches Evra.Tonight around 5 I noticed that after leaving the bath the patch peeled off, (it is possible that I was with the patch removed about 3) as soon as I noticed it immediately in its place I glued a new one. I will add that this is the second week of application, I have a change of patch on Tuesday. Did I do the right thing by sticking the patch?how to continue to use the patches to make it good? Will this not prevent the continued use of patches in this cycle?

To @dagmara: Yes, you should proceed as usual.

So if today I have a change of patch it proceeds as usual, that is, I replace it, after gluing it on the day of writing the first query?

The Evra documentation provides instructions on how to proceed in the event of complete or partial detachment of the transdermal system. This situation is unfavorable, because there is an insufficient release of hormones into the blood. However, if the patch has been removed completely or partially for less than one day (up to 24 hours), you should immediately re-stick it in the same place or apply a new one. There is no need for an additional method of contraception. The "patch change day" should remain unchanged. This situation applies to you if you have been without the patch for only 3 hours (this is what follows from your entry, if I misunderstand, you must try to determine for yourself how long the patch was peeled off - for the time below the day the information in the entry is up to date). Re-sticking the same patch may not be advisable if it has stuck to a different surface or material, lacks stickiness, or if the same patch has peeled off again. As I mentioned, it is also correct to use a spare patch from an additional package and stick it in place of the one that peeled off, which is what you did. I encourage you to read the following thread: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/172/evra-co-zrobic-jesli-plaster-antykoncepcyjny-sie-odkleil The following links may also be helpful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-prawidlowo-stosowac-antykoncepcje https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/plastry-antykoncepcyjne
