You can still get pregnant. Because your supposed to change it every 7 days. Are you on evra? If you are If you don't change your patch you wont be safe to have unprotected sex. To regulate this cycle your going to have to wait till your next menstral cycle to start taking the patch. Use as directed

It is certainly possible, and it is actually recommended to get a pregnancy test (blood) done when there has been a delay in contraception. Some doctors will not prescribe the patch or a new pack of pills late until they have checked for pregnancy. Please test before getting and applying your new patch.

it is possible, but usually the medicine stays in your system for while even after the patch has expired. but get a pregnancy test to check to be on the safe side

yep, the dose of the hormones is much lower if it's there at all..... call your doc now & take a pregnancy test before you put on a new patch.

Yes you can. Three weeks and you haven't changed it out? You see it daily if you shower, shouldn't be that hard to remember to change it. You may want to take a preg. test, and a shower.

yes you can, and you shouldn't put on a new one until you are sure that you are not pregnant. Please contact whoever prescribed the patch for you and ask what they advise that you do.
