Anybody on the patch - Did you gain weight? Other side effects?

I was on the patch for about two years and the only thing that I noticed was that the day before I started I would get a massive headache. It was the hide in bed, block out all the lights kind. Everything else was wonderful and I loved not having to remember to take a pill everyday. One thing I figured out after a few moths was where exactly you couldn't put that thing. "Low clothing traffic areas" worked the best, places like the back of the shoulder and sometimes the outside of the thigh. I hated having it anywhere else.
Question - after going off bc, how long does it take to get back a normal period?
