Hi all
Maybe a silly question....but I've noticed that my patch feels and looks wrinkly....sort of ripple effect .
I put mine on outer thigh....always have done....maybe its always done it but I haven't noticed til now??
Anyone else get this? If so ....it doesn't mean its not going to absorb does it? The edges are all stuck down.xxx

What brand of patch do you have?
Apparently there have been some changes made to the Estrodot adhesive which might mean it doesn't stick as well for some women...

I think Evorel is known not to stick as well as Estradot. The patches are larger and tend to get air under them more...
