Any type of hormonal birth control can cause a number of side effects and if you don't feel like it is working well for you, make a doctor's appointment to switch to another form of birth control. If you are sexually active, it may have been a miscarriage that you have experienced and should see your doctor to find out if that is what happened and if all of it was expelled. Though it also may just be a side-effect of the birth control patch, which gives large does of hormones and is more likely to cause blood clots and other issues than the birth control pill or other forms of birth control. There are a lot of possible reasons for what happened, but only your doctor can tell you what exactly is going on. Hope it all goes well.
