"i love the nuvaring. it&#039;s great, no side effects, and there&#039;s no way to forget. i haven&#039;t gained any weight or had terrible mood swings. my usually long and heavy period is now only 3 or 4 days and pretty light. the only bad thing is it seems to pull the condom off when i&#039;m having sex. this has happened 4 times since i&#039;ve been using it and i usually can&#039;t get it out until the next day (with some work) i end up pulling out the ring and the condom comes out with it. i asked my doctor and she said she&#039;s never heard of this. hope this helps if anyone else has this happen, but in comparison to all the alternatives...nuvaring is awesome."
