I was on orthotricyclen for 5 years before finally switching to something else. I loved orthotricyclen because it helped with my skin (no breakouts) and my period was lighter, but I gained so much weight! I'm on the patch now and I love it. Granted it does nothing for my skin, I don't have PMS like I used to and I don't have to remember a pill every night. For those concerned about it falling off, IT WON'T. It does hurt like crap peeling it off every Sunday, though. That thing sticks like duct tape. As for cravings, my friends know when I'm on my period because that's the ONLY time I'll eat hamburgers and fries or chocolate.
