I am so glad I ran into this website. Thanks ladies. I got on the NuvaRing last Tuesday (one week ago) and I already started feeling most of the side effects you all are explaining here. I got cramps in my calves, weight gain, my right breast got much larger than my left breast and is highly sensitive. It hurts when I lie on my belly. I have been sleeping a lot more too and feeling drained. 2 days ago i said forget this. I took it out and i feel so much better now - truly. it's amazing how quickly those hormones can get into your system and make you so different. It's not worth it. it's not natural and feels highly risky. I feel much better now after having read all of your side effects. Thank you.

If you have had children..try Mirena..if not Implanon..They are long term "set and forget" bc options..and are GREAT! I currently use Mirena..and some of the people here that complain of the side effects are in the early stages of use..which is common and subsides..I have been on it for over a year..and I LOVE IT! The Implanon, I have known MANY patients that use it..and have heard many great things about it! (mirena is a 5 yr plan, Implanon is a 3 yr plan) both can be removed at any time. GOOD LUCK with the hormones!!

Nurse that Understands!
