Vivelle Dot Question

Hi Ladies,

I'm on Vivelle for my FET next week. I was reading the package insert and it says not to put the patches in the same area for at least a week. Do they really mean area or same spot? I usually just move my patches over when I change them. TIA

Re: Vivelle Dot Question

  • I just switch sides everyday on my abdomen and it's every two days in the same spot on the opposite side!

  • Thank you so much!
  • I'm on Minivelle and I wondered that too. Every couple of days I'll put them in a similar spot. I can see where all of them have been since they have left red circles everywhere!

  • I just switch sides and try to pick a different area. Like @takethelongway said, the red spots stick around for a long time to make it easy to see where they were.

  • I was told to switch the side of my abdomen every 3 days, like the shots (if you did them in your abdomen).
