I'm really looking for some help. I started the contraceptive patch Evra in July and the last month I have been experiencing gushes of vaginal discharge that soak through my knickers and leave me feeling uncomfortable. Is this a side effect of the patch? Do i need to worry? I feel like I am really noticing everything and suffer with anxiety but this gushing feeling is new to me. I'm 31 and not experienced it before. Have been tested for smear, stis and infections and all normal. Thank you

Thank you for writing.
Yes, increased vaginal discharge is a side effect of this patch. Mention this to your doctor.
