Ive been using NR since january. I got diagnosed with migranes about 2 years ago so when i started getting them frequently i figured id just go back to my doctor to find something else to help. Ive tried about 4 different pain killers inluding muscle relaxer shots, to try to ease muscle tension headaches. I love the ring because im horrible with remembering to take a pill every day! Ever since ive been on the ring ive been very upset [depressed] i was really happy when i found this site. it showed me that i wasnt the only one feeling this. My migranes are so bad i cant keep my eyes open. I argue with my boyfriend more than ever because he tells me im too emotional and i cry too much. I dont know what to do because i want to be on something i dont have to remember to take everyday. I use to be on lo-overal.. it worked great but i have really good gag reflexes and the pill isnt coated so it would dissolve before you had time to swallow it! Now every time i take a pill i gag remembering what it was like to take lo-overal. It makes me sick thinking of it. Has any one ever tried the shot? Or does anyone else know of any other options besides pills? if so PLEASE let me know!

hey i was reading on medications.com that you wanted to know about the depo.. i used the depo for 3 years. when i started it i bled for 9 months without stopping and finally my body got used to it. every 3 months you go to get the shot, i went without bleeding for 2 months and the third i bled untill i got the next shot. just be aware that with any birth control you must give it time so your body can get used to it. i am currently on the nuva ring and i have had "cluster headaces" and serious itching. but i just have to get used to it. the side effects might go away. let me tell you though with the depo just because you have a bad reaction at first doesnt mean you always will. 50% of people that stay on the depo for a year completely stop bleeding. you will just have to take a chance to see how your body will react
