"i took the pill last year &amp; stopped it because i was emotional all the time &amp; felt like i had put on weight from it. i decided to try the nuvaring even tho i knew it had the same hormones. it was 10x worse than the pill. i was an emotional wreck, extremely tired all the time, &amp; always hungry. not to mention it was scary taking it out the first time. i tend to be nervous about doing something like that but it was just awful. i don&#039;t recommend this. &amp; i&#039;m never getting back on it."
