I am 33 years old, very active, in great shape. I was 35 minutes from death from the use of the Nuva Ring, I had Pulmonary Emboli! And I live 2 1/2 hours from the nearest hospital... how I made it I will never know, but the Drs said that my birth control was the reason for me being in critical care for 7 days.... If you use it get off!!!! Very Dangerous!
I Love it too!! I've only been using it for two months though. I was using the patch and hated it due to breakthrough bleeding EVERY month!! I feel I may be experiencing some off the nausea, but other than that...no complaints!! I love the convenience of it!!
