This is my first month trying the Nuvaring. My Dr. gave me a sample to try. Well, so far the side effects haven't been too horrible. I do notice I am a little sensitive but that could just be me. However, I have been on a nightmare of some modified "period" all month! I started my period July 10th and that same day I put the ring in. Normally my period last about 4-5 days. After 5 days I was spotting lightly which changed to regular period flow, then spotting again. Now I have some weird sticky brown discharge which has a slight odor. SO embarrassing! I don't even want my husband to go in the bathroom right after I use it because a slight odor lingers in the air. Sex has been uncomfortable for me. Not because it hurts but because it's so messy with me bleeding and this weird discharge. My poor husband. I really think that when I take it out, it's going to STAY out because I can not deal with these month long crazy periods all the time. Can anyone recommend any other good BC? I haven't been on it for awhile because I had a baby 16 months ago. Thanks.
