First try on patches and and they just won’t stick anywhere

[Taz2]

Which type of patch and are you following instructions to the letter as that makes a difference. Lots of us have had problems with them sticking. I'm on Evorel and put mine towards the top of my buttock. Have to hold firmly in place with a (my!) warm palm to activate the adhesive. Some find a brief blast with a hot hairdryer helps.

I find the femseven conti often start to peel off before the seven days but if I press them back on for a short time they can restick, not always, so then just have to use a new one. I put them on buttocks switching sides each time. Make sure area is dry and don’t use any creams etc.

Hi Victoria312

I also had a huge problem getting everol to stick.

I avoid creams or shower gels in the area on the day of application then wipe the area with alcohol on a cotton pad - I've been using my gel nail cleanser! - then I wipe again with plain water, dry thoroughly and warm the area and the patch in my hand before application. Once stuck on I rub for a couple of minutes. Just above my pubic area works for me so under my pants.

This method works for me xxxxx
