WoW! Sounds just like my symptoms also! Been on NuvaRing for one week now and I feel bloated, depressed....all of the above! I have also noticed this dark brown spotting! I had a baby 6 weeks ago and my Dr. and I decided that this would be the best method of BC for me....WRONG! I thought that the spotting and bitchiness was just my body adjusting back to not being prego...guess not! I also noticed weight gain..I was down to my pre-pregnancy weight and I have gained 3 lbs in the past 7 days with no appetite! WTF! Bloating has been a major problem these past fw days too! Guess it's off to Mirena for me! We'll see how that goes!
