How does Ortho Evra works
Ortho Evra patch is being applied to the surface of the skin whereby it provides a regular flow of hormones into the bloodstream within a week. It contains the same hormones as found in a contraceptive pill and helps in preventing ovulation( process of releasing egg for fertilization). Again it thickens the cervical mucus that lessens the chances of sperm to enter the uterus and also changes endometrium to lessen the chances of implantation.
