Ethinyl estradiol / etonogestrel
birth control
"I've been on the ring for 6 months. Before that I was on the "ortho tri cyclen lo" pills for almost a year. For the first 4 months I was raving about it to everyone who brought up birth control, be it customers, friends, family, etc. Things have changed since, my sex drive is low, I'm an emotional trainwreck for no reason. It's nice not having to worry about it everyday and it's been great at preventing pregnancy. Now it's harder to just put those negative things aside when I feel like it's affecting my relationship and myself emotionally. But I'm still deciding whether to stop using it because I don't want to just use condoms now since I'm not open to taking any other hormonal birth control at this moment."
