Birth Control
"I am 35 and have been on many methods of birth control since the age of 21. For the past 7 years I have had breakthrough bleeding off and on so my OBGYN suggested I switch to Nuvaring. Breakthrough bleeding has almost completely resolved. But the cons of the ring have been pretty bad - horrible acne (painful bumps, cystic acne on chin/jam), depression, moodiness, crying, trouble focusing, vaginal dryness and discharge, abdominal bloating, etc. I have been on Nuvaring about 7 months now as I was hoping my symptoms would lessen or resolve - not happening so, called OBGYN today and getting a new script for new pill. Pros are that is it convenient. I had no loss of sex drive, no hair loss and never fell out during sex. Just can&#039;t deal with the cons."
