The contraceptive patch is a thin, flexible patch that you put on your upper arm, buttocks, stomach or chest (but not on your breasts). You put on a patch once a week for 3 weeks. On the 4th week, you don't wear a patch and your period starts.
The side effects are similar to those of birth control pills. Breast discomfort is more common in the first two months using the patch. The area of skin where the patch was placed can become irritated. Women who use the patch should not smoke. Smoking increases the risk of serious side effects, such as blood clots.
