Hey ladies, I switched to Nuvaring from BC
pills because I heard that they had less
of a hormonal effect when compared to BC
pills. Made sense.
In inserting the ring I began feeling side
effects within the hour! Headache, nausea,
mood swings. I found myself quite
irritable and bitter only a day in! I
figured it's normal to feel the hormonal
changes and my body should adjust soon.
It's been 5 days, I've had low energy
levels, headaches, nausea, and find myself
depressed and considering breaking up with
my boyfriend. There is nothing wrong with
my boyfriend!
Needless to say I decided to remove the
ring before a week was even up, and in two
hours the majority of my 'side effects'
have vanished! All of a sudden my
boyfriend doesn't seem so bad lol.
So I guess I'd just like to share my story
with anyone else who is easily prone or
sensitive to hormonal changes that
Nuvaring may not be the best choice. I've
concluded through my personal experience
that hormonal BC just isn't for this
girl.
I never even tried having intercourse with
the ring in, personally wasn't too sure
how well that would go over...you can only
fit in so many objects at once
Cheers girls!
