Just started with Nuvaring a week ago. Haven't been on any birth control in over 5 years. I don't know if these are common to all hormonal birth control methods but have been experiencing nausea, dizziness, anxiety, mood swings, pelvic soreness, and I can feel the ring; in general and during intercourse. My boyfriend can feel it, too. Also, there is some vaginal discharge that smells funny. Not strong, just funny. The mood swings are intense, from crying for almost no reason, to a strong sense of anxiety. My sleep has been disturbed due to a general sense of nervousness. I think after this month, I will switch to the pill.

Me too!!! I went on Nuvaring about a week ago after being off BC for 3 years. I put it in on the second day of my period, and although it wasn't uncomfortable, I felt sort of bloated or full. I also got a funny odor when I pee'd, and a constant burning sort of feeling around my vagina. I'm going to stick it out for a few more days, and if it still feels 'funny', it's back to condoms.
