Birth Control
"I was using the nuva ring for about a year and a half.. Maybe a little over. At first I noticed a change in my attitude as if it almost made me crazy, emotional, &amp; snippy. I was excited to have my period shortened to a day a month with clear skin while also being protected from pregnancy so the mood change wasn&#039;t a big deal. About 6-7 months after being on it I started gaining weight with no diet change. Now looking back I went from 153-198lbs.  Also my sex drive decreased 100%!! If it weren&#039;t for my boyfriend loving sex, sex probably wouldn&#039;t even cross my mind. Went off it last week with high hopes because the side effects aren&#039;t worth it after the convenience wears off."
