I have tried the NuvaRing off and on over the past year. My journey started because every pill I tried gave me mild to severe headaches for 3 to 10 days a month. I have not had headache issues with NuvaRing -- yeah!! BUT -- here is the kicker. I take Zoloft too. When on the pill and taking Zoloft, my anxiety was under control. When I use the NuvaRing and Zoloft I spin into anxiety mode again, almost as if the Zoloft doesn't work at all. I am 39 and my spouse won't do something permanent. I feel really trapped. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm using the NuvaRing too. I've had it in for about two weeks. I started getting leg cramps in my right calf. I thought it was from the shoes I was wearing back and forth to work. I also had abdominal pains. I was really upset because I thought I was getting cramps with which I did not have when I was on Ortho Tri Cyclin Lo. I also have had pains in my chest slightly from time to time. My family thinks I'm a hypochondriac so I didn't think anything of any of the pains until I got to this website. I don't know if I should take the ring out even though I'm not scheduled to take it out until November 16th. My gyno didn't tell me about any side effects and everyone else I know loves NuvaRing. I'm really nervous.
