I heard the birth control patch is not good anymore and can cause serious health problems. Does anyone else still use the patch?

The patch, the pill, and the shot all contain hormones. They all have the same side effects of blood clots which can cause heart attacks and strokes. Smoking and family history increase your risks. There is virtually NO difference. Hormones are hormones no matter how they are delivered to your body.

I still use the patch & I love it. I wouldn't use anything else.
