I loved it!
Usually you should give birth control
three months before you give up on it. I'd
hang in there a little longer and see if
things change for the better, and if it
doesn't, you can think about switching to
something else.

I used it but my experience doesn't really
count. My body was messed up from a form I
had before it and the ring just made more
problems. I wouldn't mind trying it again
once my body is settled down! I have a
friend who loves it and has never had a
problem. But remember all people react
differently

I started on the ring because I could
never remember to take my pills everyday
so my GYN told me about the ring and how
great it was. Well, she never mentioned
any side effects. I noticed after being on
it for 3 months that I was feeling
depressed and becoming very angry all the
time. My boyfriend and I had problems but
I was like a crazy women and reacted
violently at times. I also notice a lot of
wetness and then it turned into a yeast
infection. After the second yeast
infection within a 4 month period, I
stopped using the ring. I also stared to
notice a huge change in my sex drive and
often I would not even feel the desire to
have sex at all. I wondered if the ring
had anything to do with it, so I stopped
for 2 months to see if I was just making
this all up in my mind. After reading all
the posts on this site I was finally
convinced I was not crazy after all. I
feel so much better now that I'm not on
the ring and my boyfriend and I have a
MUCH,MUCH better relationship!

She didn't mention side effects because
not every woman gets them. However
everything you have listed is a possible
side effects of ANY hormonal birth
control. It could have happened when you
were on the pill too.

all the side effects mentioned for
different women. I'm still depressed and
so low energy. I wonder how long do i
have to wait to clean my body for this

ring if you have a backwards tilting
uterus?

I have the same experience but with the
pills...I think any hormonal medication is
going to affect different people in
different ways. Everyone says you have to
use it for 3 months to get your body used
to it. If you can hold out..try it for a
couple months and if you still feel like
this..switch to something else and just
keep trying things til you find one that
works for you. Thats what Im doing..Ive
tried several forms now...they all have
made me moody and tired as hell so Im
still searching...it really sucks

I'm not sure, you might want to check with
your doc. But I don't think it would make
a difference, the ring only has to be in
your vagina, not up against your cervix or
fitted against it or anything. As long as
your vaginal walls can absorb the
hormones, it will work.
