Yes, because like satindesire said, your hormone levels are fluctuating. When you are on the birth control pill, if you continue to take your pills everyday but then skip a few days, you'll usually start your period, even if you're not finished with the pack. Same goes with the patch. What birth control basically does is trick your body into thinking it's pregnant so that it doesn't release any new eggs. So when you don't take it, your body figures it's good to go and starts a new menstrual cycle. I'm sure there's nothing wrong with you. You'll get back on track once you start using the patch again.

You should not be asking us these questions. You should consult your doctor, or at the very least a medical helpline.
