A member asked:
Can i be on the mirena iud and the xulane birth control patch at the same time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You should not use both because too much hormones in your body can exacerbate the side effect such as deep venous thrombosis, etc. The contraceptive effect won't change much with combined use and the risk is much higher than the benefit. Take care.
