I've been on the Nuva ring for 3 months now, i went on it, like everyone eles because i knew that i wouldn't be able to remember a pill everyday. i don't have many drastic side affects like the other blogs, i mean there are some times i feel like i've gained some weight so i blame it on the nuvaring (and completely block out my pilly-steak and cheese diet), but i have actually started loosing wieght by just eating right, my doctor said that the nuvaring cauese 2% of weight gain. i think that if women are aware of that 2% they can prevent weight gain.
the only think i hate about the nuvaring (and the reason why i wanted to check out these blogs, just to make sure i wasn't the only one) is all the nasty discharge. i have to ware a pad everyday, if i don't i need to change my underware. i heard that the discharge is suppose to decrease after about 3 months, but nothings changes yet, i'm still waiting...
one more comment i have is for the hormones, yeah i act crazy sometimes, but i am a female, i don't think the nuvaring makes me any crazier then i've been. :)
(can't the invent a birthcontrol for men!!!)
rating 1 to 10, i rate the nuvaring a 7.5
if anyone has anyother questions go ahead and emial me
