I have had I terrible live changing experience with Nuvaring. I experienced the a loss in sex drive and vaginal pains during intercourse. I was on the ring for over two years, and have been off it for almost a year now. I went off because my husband and I wanted to try to get pregnant. I knew that the drug can stay in your system for a while after it is removed, but nearly a year is impossible. I also know I wasn't infertile before the ring because I had been pregnant before. So I shouldn't be infertile now. I have seen numerous doctors and they can't find any thing wrong with me. I have never had any diseases and my husband hasn't either. We have always been completely monogamous healthy people. There is not outside reason we shouldn't be pregnant. I am going to a fertility specialist next week and I am very hopeful that I can still have children. I don't know for sure if my problems are from the ring, but it seems too likely. I highly suggest that anyone contemplating using the ring look for something else, and if you are on it get off as soon as possible. It's so much easier just to not have to deal with the problems.

I am just wondering how you are doing and how did you appt with the fertility specialist go. I am wondering because I have had a life changing event from the NR as well. I developed a blood clot from it. (Well, it is the only thing my doctors can trace it back to.) I am lucky to be alive. So, I was just wondering if this might have messed me up in other ways. I have not been on BC in 2 years and I have never been pregnant, but I was just concerned about this happening. Please let me know how everything is going for you. And I wish you the best.
