I have been on the NuvaRing for 2 years and I felt that my moods were gradually getting worse, more unpredictable and moody at random times throughout the month. My sex drive, as a newly wed, wasn't what it should be and I was tired ALL the time. I loved the convenience of the Ring, but after talking with my doctor, she suggested I try a low does hormone for a while. My body could have been going through normal changes of it's own and the Ring can make those changes worse. So I have been on Loestrin for a week now and I am having some funny symptoms that I have never had before. I actually have had issues with my stomach, I am more tired than I was before. This is just only a week in and it could be completely unrelated, but I was curious if anyone else has had anything similar to my symptoms.
