"i&#039;ve been on nuvaring for 6 months. i previously had the arm implant, but the hormones caused cystic acne and irregular bleeding. no problems with the nuvaring aside from slight weight gain (couple of pounds), which i can live with. my periods have been very regular, no spotting, no mood swings, no change in sex drive. i experienced minimal cramping the first month and continued bloating during my periods.  



this is a good option for those who have a hard time remembering to take the pill everyday. once a month is phenomenal!"
