Hi everyone

I've started to have some skin irritation where I apply the evorel 100 patches. Been on them for 18 months and this has only happened over the past few months.   It's not awful but around the edges is red and itchy.

Does anyone else get this?  Does it mean I'm allergic to the adhesive?  Will they still work properly?

Thank you.

This happened to me pretty much straightaway and got worse and worse until the whole area under the patch got red and raw. My gynae said it was an allergic reaction to the adhesive and not uncommon with Evorel. You may find you are OK with another brand if you want to stay with patches.
