Yes, I am experiencing hair loss. I was on the Nuva Ring for 5 months. I have been prone to hair loss since I was 14. I'm 35 now. I decided to try the Nuva Ring because of the low amount of hormones. The pill I was on seemed to be making me lose hair too. The hair loss I have been having in the past month and a half is exorbitant. I have to wack myself out on Xanax when I wash my hair so I don't kill myself. I have also noticed that I am anxious and I have a very short temper. I took the ring out last week and I won't use it again.
Horrible hair loss!! I've always had such thick hair and now its falling out mostly on top and around my face so its VERY noticeable. I was on it for 6 months before my 2nd dermatologist came the the conclusion that the Nuvaring MIGHT be the case. When I thought of the time line it has to be. I've been on numous other oral contraceptices w/o this problem. I just hope it grows back!
