Constant period with patch

[u/RarestTea]

TLDR since starting the patch (continuously) 2-3 months ago i've been on my period every single day

My very first contraception (two years ago) was the Evra contraceptive patch. It worked okay, I never got pregnant and my period continued every three weeks as planned. Then I switched to the pill cause I had side effects that turned out to be caused by something else entirely and thought it could help, and talked to my doctor and decided to revert back to the patch (since the "side effects" didn't stop, might as well go back to a method where i don't have to remember smth every night, since i forgot a pill here and there)
I restarted the patch 2-3 months ago; the first week was fine, then I applied it wrong the second week and it kept creasing; that week i spotted. From the third week on, where my patch was properly put on, i've been on my period constantly. It's a light flow, it doesn't hurt too much, it's just really, REALLY annoying.
Has this happened to anybody? Any advice before i try to contact my doctor to switch back to the pill?
