I was on NR for about a year. The past three months I haven't been able to get out of bed, I'm acting depressed, losing so much hair...my doctors thought it was attributed to my thyroid...I think its the ring. Not only that but sex became so painful even after several days I would still be hurting. I've had excessive amounts of discharge and it feels like my left ovary just got punched. I took the ring out a month ago after a week of having it in one I realized what was causing my problems. It gave me two more periods within several weeks and now nothing. I'm going back to the doctor.
