NuvaRing
birth control
"My partner and I finally decided to try some alternate methods of birth control. Nuvaring was my first choice because I'm too forgetful to try pills and I must say I've had a mixed experience. I love the fact that I can insert it and forget about it. I don't feel it during sex and it doesn't slip out. It got rid of my reoccurring yeast infections, I even grew a cup size. However, I can't help but notice that I've gained weight especially around my waistline which almost never happens, and my sex drive has decreased. I exercise regularly so I know it had to be the hormones. I experience extreme mood swings, I'm a lot more angry, I find myself depressed, have random urges to cry and my periods are just as painful as before. I just may switch soon."
