I've been on NuvaRing for 2 months and I noticed the side effects right away. I feel so depressed the first week after inserting the ring. I cry spontaneously, nausea, I feel fatigued, I'm gaining weight, my boobs are larger and feel heavy (not really complaining about that), I've had 2 UTI's while using this ring and my memory is shot. I'll walk into a room to get something or do something and forget. I have to stand there for at least 3-5 seconds before I remember. And, taking it out...what a pain. I can't even find the thing. Had to get my boyfriend to remove it for me. I've decided, the side effects do not = the benefits. I made an appt. to see my dr. next week. I guess I'll be going back to the pill. :(
