it could be. lubrication is caused by the hormone estrogen starting on the last day of your menstruation leading to your day of ovulation. this is your body's way of preparing for a possible ovulation. now, with your hormone patch, it could be disrupting with your estrogen production.

Yes! If you are using the birth control patch, your body is receiving doses of synthetic estrogen and progesterone. Both of these hormones can affect vaginal lubrication.

The hormone patch can cause a change in your hormones which in result will effect how much lubrication you have. You may try some over the counter lubrication, for instance KY Jelly.

Lubrication during intercourse can be affected by hormonal changes and that is why at certain times of the month a woman gets well lubricated than others. Hormone patch could be responsible for this but it is important you visit an expert for verification.
