"nuva ring has had both negative and positive effects on me. first of all i actually lost weight. i have an increased sex drive and have had no slipping and it has never fallen out. unfortunately i have had more depressive periods and cramps have been horrible. but on the most important note i have been using it for a year and haven&#039;t gotten pregnant. so it&#039;s done its job and the side effects haven&#039;t been unbearable. so if you are deciding whether or not to use this, the best advice i can give is do what is best for you and your body."
