Will ghusal be valid when using a birth control patch

Q: I'm getting married tomorrow and I wanted to use the patch as a form of birth control. I'm worried that my ghusl wouldn't be accepted if I do so I started taking yaz. It already started affecting my haidh and I'm scared of the side effects. Is ghusl valid when using the patch?

A: If it is for valid medical reasons that you have to have this type of prevention then it will be permissible. However, refer to other ulama as well.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
