..so i've been using the ring for a little
over a year now but ran out last month and
instead of getting more my bf and I
decided to use condoms this month..
what my question is ..has anyone
discontinued using a birth control method
and started having symptoms of a
pregnancy? ..like your body is adjusting
from all the hormones?
..i've been experiencing nausea, tender
nipples/breasts, gas, extreme fatigue,
weird sensations in my abdomen, slight
headaches, bloated feelings...
anyone else feel this AFTER the nuvaring
or any other hormonal bc?

yep. As you're coming off the hormones,
your body will start to adjust again.
Don't worry about it.
Of course, if there is a reason you think
you might be pregnant (you had unprotected
sex or something) than you should be
worried.

I have gone off nuva ring on two different
occasions, and both times i experienced
most of the pregnancy symptoms you
described. The sore nipples were very
noticeable for probably 2-3 weeks, to the
point where I took a pregnancy test, which
was negative. The second time I stopped
using the nuva ring I was expecting the
symptoms so I was less worried. If you are
worried though, take a pregnancy test and
then you can feel better when it is
negative!
