"i started nuvaring when i was 15, i don&#039;t trust the pill and have only had nuvaring,(recently switched to skyla.) i was on nuvaring for 5 years. i liked it. it did get a little annoying because it would sometimes start to hang low due to certain sex. helped with cramps, but periods got confusing. found out  i misused for a few months to a year, messed up my timing on my calendar. but i was still fine. i recommend it."
