Nuvaring

reviewed by katatat

"the Ring" is a new Birth Control method that is becoming increasingly more popular. it is a small plastic ring containing a low dose of hormones that steadily release in the vagina, where it stays for 3 wks. at a time. I know women are using it and would want to see it on the Birth Control Method Rating list!!

Nuvaring 3

I might as well just use a condom.

I've been on it for 2 weeks now and all the side effects are kicking in. My boobs hurt, i am always having cramps, and to top it off It definitely interrupts our intercourse as I have to trekk to the bathroom to take the damn thing out each time. At first I couldn't feel it but for some reason now I can and it doesn't matter how I put it in , it keeps slipping down to the point of feeling it when I am walking. It's making me sore in the area, and sex isn't fun anymore. I don't want to eat. I have been on the pill and tried all different pills and yasmin for a while except for the POP which for some reason my doctor is reluctant to give to me. I don't know if I can afford it either, it's 60 dollars every 3 months and I have insurance that covers Iuds , pills, the implant, for 20 dollars. =[


I guess the side effects aren't very bad considering other birth control i've been on. But the most bothersome is having to feel it in my vajayjay (and it hurting it), and taking it out for sex.

it's okay. its normal to have those side effects within the first month. your body isn't used to it so its trying to reject it, also.
