I have been using NuvaRing for about 9 months. At first it was great because I have a lot of trouble with pills and the patch was giving me migranes but over the past 6 months I have had a lot of trouble with it. The discharge is a problem. And sex has been extremely painful. This was never a problem until I started NuvaRing. Now my boyfriend and I do not have the active sex life we used to because it hurts too much! Sharp pains and tenderness after a few minutes of sex. And the pain lasts for a good 24-48 hours. Sometimes it hurts to even sit! I have a doctors appt. to change to a new birth control again! And by the way, has anyone noticed that some insurances don't cover it and the price has gone up to almost $50!?
