I was browsing this forum because i was curious about whether my slightly decreased sex drive was just in my head. Other than that i've had NO negative symptoms. I would advise those considering the ring to try it out for themselves, because i think this is a good alternative to the pill because the pill gave me migraines etc right away, and this is so much more convenient. (I feel badly that other have had a bad reaction, but if it makes you feel so bad, why would you stay on it FOR A WHOLE YEAR? I still think it's a better form of birth control than some alternatives.)
