"i used the nuvaring for 3 months before (it was just a sample supply) and i loved it. i was not on insurance at the time and couldn&#039;t afford to continue to use it. i have been on the nuvaring again for about 3 months. i mostly love it. i have gained about 6lbs (from 110 to 116) in that three months. i also gained a cup size and my breasts are constantly sore/tender. i also have been experiencing hard/cystic like breakouts mainly on my jaw line but also a few times on my cheeks. they are incredibly painful and don&#039;t pop well and just turn into big sores that itch and hurt. i wish that part would go away, because aside from that i love my nuvaring."
