No, the patch is less effective than the shot.
No, the myth that antibiotics make birth control pills less effective is not true.
Yes, birth control pills will become less effective if stored in temperatures which are too hot or too cold. Ideally, they should be stored at temperatures between 68 and 77 degrees. Excess moisture is not good for them either, so storing them in the bathroom is not a good idea.
