I get what Guest 14810 is saying about giving the drug a chance, but here is my scenario. I have been on the pill, and for the past 2 years maybe, the patch. The patch was a godsend because I kept forgetting to take the pill. My doctor said last month that since I had an instance of it floating away in water, to try the ring. I just took it out today which means I have tried it for one whole (3 week) month and I have not felt well at all. I've had a headache for about 2 weeks straight, chest pain, shortness of breath, extreme sensitivity in my breasts and down low, cramping, and inability to stand intercourse. There is no way I'm continuing this thing for another 2 months to waite for the side effects to subside! The weight gain and depression I can't account for because I am overweight anyway, and I have a history of depression. I havn't had any issues with the patch at all in its function, so I'm running back right away. I'm sure my effects aren't going to be the same for everyone- but here is my history: 25yrs, 210 pounds, currently taking zoloft and wellbutrin, no history of heart issues, non smoker. I hope it works better for the rest of you- sometimes it takes time to find the right drug.
