It depends on the type of patch you are using. Some patches are designed to be water-resistant and can remain on during swimming or showering, while others may need to be removed to avoid losing adhesion or effectiveness. Always check the manufacturer's instructions for specific guidance on whether your patch can be exposed to water. If in doubt, it's best to remove it before swimming or showering.

Can you swim if you're on the birth control patch?

My pharmacist said that heat will make the hormones be overly absorbed in your skin--as a result it is bad to tan with it on. taking it off before tanning and replacing afterwards has risks as well--effectiveness may decrease or it may not restick apparently being in the sun with it on is okay though all of this comes from the pharmacist who works at cvs, so take it as you wish.


Why do you shower after swiming?

You shouldn't take it off until you are suppose to, but if you have gone at least 4-5 days without sex and then take the patch off, you are safe from pregnancy. However, you will need to take the proper steps before you have sex again (follow instructions with the patch) or use a condom.
