I'm so glad I found this site. I, too, thought I was going mad. I had a baby 7 weeks ago, and have been on the nuvaring for 7 days. A few days ago, I started experiencing social anxiety, severe insecurities, crying at the drop of a hat, depression, severe nausea. I felt like everyone at the grocery store was staring at me. I found myself snooping through my husband's phone because I was convinced that he was having an affair. I'm a normally happy and confident person. When my tennis team asked me to lunch, I felt like it was only to be nice and that they secretely hope I won't go. I am feeling like a burden to everyone in my life. So, I took it out last night. Had great experience prior to having baby with the copper-t iud b/c of no hormonal side effects and it lasts 10 yrs. My husband is going to get a vasectomy, but I guess we'll use condoms until he's cleared with that. Thanks for listening.

At nine he was still thr...

I am a new to BC. I am on my 2nd ring and I am having really bad headaches. I also have been sweating. I wake up during the night drenched from sweat. While trying to exercise, walk, or shop I am so hot I am removing clothing and fanning myself for relief. This past week while shopping at the grocery store I became so hot that I had to leave my cart and stand out side in the rain for relief. I have read a few of the past entries but no one has mentioned sweating as a side effect. Oh and shall I mention I am only 27 yrs old so no chance of menopause. Could this be a side effect from the Ring?
