A member asked:

I am 43 and on the birth control patch and have been for a very long time. is it true that bc will always mask perimenopause symptoms?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: the patch contains estrogen, and menopause is characterized by estrogen deficiency, which you will not experience if you are receiving supplemental estrogen.
