Easy to use, very effective...but don't like some of the side effects, including decreased sex drive, vaginal dryness & discharge, and weight gain. I gained about 10 pounds and cannot seem to lose it. I have now changed methods, so we'll see how things turn out.

It is a litle hard to get in place exactly right. And since there is no generic option for it (yet) it can be a little expensive. If you don't get it in a good position the first time, it can have a tendence to almost slip out and you have to keep trying to get it back in. That is my biggest complaint. Otherwise, it was fine.

well, not pregnent so far, but I feel like I am becasue I constantly feel like crap. I am planning on talking to my doctor for an alternate to this just because I feel pretty crappy all of the time. It works, but I really don't feel like me. I feel more depressed than ever, weight gain- lets face it nobody wants that especially if they have to watch it anyway. As well as moody, severe headaches for no reason (I do have a history of migrains though), My breasts feel huge and tender and it annoys me becasue I'm moody. I have no libido so whats the point of being on birth control? My poor boyfriend is convinced he can feel it and now that i'm used to it I don't feel it, but at first it made me feel like I had an infection or something and I was really concerned but that goes away during my period and comes on again the first few days of use. Definently more tenderness overall- like I used to be tough now i'm a wimp- like if someone pokes my arm or my side or anything it hurts even though it wasn't hard. The good thing is that i'mnot doubled over in bed the first day or two of my period from my cramps. I can also predict my period start days more confidently. i usually remove the ring on a sunday and I start by wednesday and put the ring in again sunday. periods are lighter and less severe, but i'm bloated all the time.
