When you're on the Birth Control patch, the patch provides a constant level of progestin and estrogen. When those hormone levels drop, withdrawal bleeding occurs. That's why you bleed during your pill-free week, and why you may bleed if you have a patch fall off.

What is the birth control patch?
The birth control patch is a combined hormonal birth control method. Instead of taking a pill, you apply a patch to the skin.
