I love the patch. It's very convienent. You just stick it on and forget about it for the week. I usually place the patch on my bottom. It does leave a little outline after you take it off. I wash the site really good with soap and what to get the excess glue off. Then I rub a little baby oil over it, and it's gone in a day or two. FYI: My male cousins say the really like when ladies where the patch because they can actually see that she's on birth control. Anyone can say they're on the pill, but you don't really know if you don't watch them take it.
