Does anyone else get hot flashes during their week off BC? Specifically, I'm on ortho evra (the patch).

It's a possible side effect. I was on it for a year, and I didn't have any. However I'm on Depo Provera now, and I have them. It sucks. I'm sorry. How long have you been on it? You may want to consider changing BC, but thats up to you. I know I can't stand them.
