"since i work at an ob-gyn office, i&#039;m somewhat of a birth control connoisseur.  i was on nuvaring for 2 years.  i didn&#039;t experience any weight gain and it gave me a regular period, my partner and i never experienced any discomfort from it, and it was definitely an improvement from the &quot;crazy moodiness&quot; i had on the depo shot.  also, i loved the convenience of inserting nuvaring only once a month.  the only downside was that i had absolutely no sex drive.  as in, i never even thought about sex any more. if it weren&#039;t for the 100% change in sex drive (and the fact there&#039;s no generic yet), i&#039;d go back on nuvaring in a heartbeat."
