What is the birth control patch?
The birth control patch is a combined hormonal birth control method. Instead of taking a pill, you apply a patch to the skin. The medication is absorbed by the skin, and you change the patch once a week for three weeks. On the fourth week, you wear no patch and have a withdrawal bleed, similar to a period. The next week, you start the cycle again. The effectiveness is comparable to the birth control pill, except that it's harder to make mistakes since the patient needs to do something weekly instead of daily.
