I loved the nuvaring. I was diagnosed with perimenopause at 38 yrs. The nuvaring helped balance my hormones, and mood swings. I also started losing weight, because I no longer had the hormonal imbalance. One downside is that it did elevate my heart rate, and my doctor took me off of them.

I believe Nuvaring killed my 22 year old daughter within 6 months after starting it, It's very effective, it will kill you

I switched from the patch to the ring bc the patches sucked. So I switch to nuvaring and honestly it's great. Yeah I dealt with side effects like nausea,dizzness, and cramps but I loved it. Sometimes I just hate push it in my vagina almost everyday to make sure it's in place. But overall I love it.

My pharmacy switched me to the generic after 17 years on Nuva ring I found out when I reported my periods lasting for 3 weeks no joke yes 3 weeks! Extreme nausea I thought I was pregnant at one point from how nauseous this makes me extremely bad cramps not just on your period they just never go away ! Vagina is swollen sex is painful like my uterus is going to fall out it sucks my dr lied and said cvs didn’t even have the actual Nuva ring and I called and they said what of course we do and they said they would call and say not to give me generic and they never did they also didn’t return phone calls from cvs sending the request to not have generic I’m getting my tubes tied this is why people don’t want to have kids to end up in this crappy world Read More Read Less

I use it to balance my hormones but my periods have been skipping and I have heavy blood flow and have had a myomectomy for overproduction of estrogen-build-up in my ovaries. So, mood swings, moody, depression are definitely

When using the Nuvaring, it was great not having to take birth control everyday but it had one severe side effect: it caused extreme mood swings and terrible depression. I was crying every day and needed a lot of emotional support. Took out the Nuvaring for my first period and my depression disappeared. Safe to say I did not put a new ring back in.
