Hi, Thx.for the query. I understand your concern. It's good that you have started using a routine patch devise for contraception. Morning after pill is an emmergency contraceptive.. &needs to be used only in emmergency... for it comprises of high dose hormone &leads totemporary hormonal disturbence after a use.... but frequent use is liable to cause a prolonged menstrual &therefoe conceptional disturbance. Any way ,regular use of patch would take care of sny such problem &you need not worry.. you would get pregnant in few months Thanks.
