I am almost 23 and have been on different birth controls since I was 16. Almost every pill imaginable, and each either made me sick or very moody and depressed with no sex drive. I have depression already, so I then switched to the patch, but after all the lawsuits and still no sex drive I switched to the nuvaring. I have been on it for almost 2 years and loved it. NO moodiness that I can account to the nuvaring, have my sex drive, not sick, and didn't have to think of it all the time. well 2 months ago I missed a month and ever since then I have had non-stop cramping, the gyn. found a cyst on my fallopian tubes, but didn't relate that to the pain. She has now switched my birth control to see if that is it (i am very uncomfortable with birth control now). I started taking Femcon FE today and have been sick ALL DAY, I read about those side affects...and let's just say I think I will be switching. I miss my nuva! I am really wanting to stop taking birth control all together...it just cannot be good for you, but I cannot bc then I will not have a period...
