Do you get heartburn with hormonal BC?

I have been on the Evra patches for about three years now and I have noticed in that time that I have been suffering from heartburn a lot more frequently (now I get it two or three times a week but it hasn't always been like that, just worsening over the three years - I might have had it before that, to be honest I can't really remember, I know it has never been this bad before though). I have tried lots of different treatments but I am beginning to wonder whether it might be the hormones in the patch that are causing it. Has anyone else had this with the patches or the pill? Otherwise I find it really suits me, so I'll be annoyed to have to come off it, but I think I might have to try and see if my heartburn reduces...

Thanks

I just started Loestrin 24 yesterday, but I have been having heartburn for 2 days! Does anyone know if this goes away?
