I have been on the NUVARing for 2 years and I'm 25. About 5 months ago I started having really really bad DRY EYE PROBLEMS. I have been to the ophthalmologist and I've been on restasis, refresh plus, Lotomax, and other ointment I put on my eyelids at night. The eye problem isn't getting much better. Has anyone else experienced this? Also, I use to have super thick curly hair. I lose about a handful of hair a week and I don't think this is normal anymore. I'm wondering if it is time to take out the ring. Any advice?

This is really surprising...I'm glad I saw what you read. I too have had severe dry eye problems, and have been prescribed all the ointments you have. I never attributed it to the NuvaRing, though...I'm starting to get suspicious. Just recently out of the blue, I'm experiencing enormous PMS symptoms...hoping I'm not pregnant?? Anyone else have that as well??
