What is Xulane and how is it used?
Xulane is a prescription hormonal contraceptive delivered via a transdermal patch. It contains two active ingredients: the progestin norelgestromin and the estrogen ethinyl estradiol. Its primary mechanism is to inhibit ovulation. It also thickens cervical mucus to impede sperm and alters the endometrial lining to prevent implantation. The patch is applied to clean, dry skin on the upper outer arm, abdomen, buttock, or back (but not the breasts) once a week for three weeks, followed by one patch-free week. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections. Important safety information includes a black box warning: cigarette smoking significantly increases the risk of serious cardiovascular events, and women over 35 who smoke should not use hormonal contraceptives like Xulane. It is also contraindicated in individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater due to an increased risk of blood clots.
