The patch is getting very popular because it is easier to use than a daily pill. Some women have increased breast tenderness, changes in bleeding patterns or headaches the first few months they use it, but these symptoms usually get better after the first few cycles. I don't know why it would influence IBS symptoms one way or the other. Although it's common to have some increased IBS symptoms around the menses, hormones are not effective treatments.
