My Doctor has put me on them to where I will have a period once every 3 months. I have not found nay info on the orhro evra web site about this. I have never heard of taking it without stopping. I wouldn't think that would be good on the body. I havea very bad hormone inbalance, that at times makes me so ill, I can't get out of bed. Don't you just hate hormones? :)
