The question does not include the name of the patches used. If your question is about Evra tagged, please read on.
Switching from Evra patches to Yasmin contraceptive pills should be done after consultation with your doctor. You can take advantage of the consultation, m.in via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

Starting a new pack of Yasmin correctly should be started on the day the Evra contraceptive patch is removed, no later than the day on which a new patch should be applied. In this case, the contraceptive efficacy of the drug is maintained. This means that it is also possible to change the method of contraception immediately after the patch has come off.
