The Birth Control patch, like the pill and the ring, can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. These may rarely result in death. A young woman is more likely to die from getting pregnant and delivering a baby than from using combined hormonal birth control.

Patients who use the birth control patch are those who want to avoid pregnancy or reduce painful or excessive menstruation, but do not want to take a pill daily. Since the patch needs to be changed only once weekly, it's less likely to be forgotten.
