Hello,
I am 21 in a steady relationship. I am not fan of anti-baby pills, so I would like to try something else. I heard on TV for this contraceptive patch. What is this exactly? What are the side-effects of contraceptive patch?

Hey there,
Contraceptive patch is a new hype… it is proven to be 99 % effective, which is similar rate as pills have. But, luckily for you test show that more omen have higher compliance with contraceptive patch than with anti-baby pills… Contraceptive patch, the same as anti-baby pills, also contains oestrogen and progesterone, but in lower quantities… this is because the substance goes directly into the blood stream (this is a patch not a pill), not like the pill, that has to travel through digestive system. In comparison with pills, contraceptive patch has fewer side effects, such as vomiting and diarrhea. There is also warning, that contraceptive patches are not good enough for every woman, especially for those who are overweight (over 200 lbs), because they might not get enough dose in blood. However, the patch is designed to be stuck to skin during bathing and swimming or other activities. The patch needs to be changed once weekly, which means 3 times in a month. During your period you wear no contraceptive patch… and that’s about it on contraceptive patch.
Hope I helped you understand little bit more on this case.
