"i have been on nuvaring for almost a year. at first i loved it because of the lack of pills/having to remember everyday. my boyfriend said he could feel it, but it wasn&#039;t a big deal. a few months go by, and he notices a slight cut on his penis. he said it hurt, but only a little. we kept having sex but much less often. now it&#039;s progressed to the point where it hurts all the time especially when he gets hard. i am switching to an iud asap. i would highly recommend nuvaring if you do not have a monogamous parter, because i had absolutely no other side effects. however, if you&#039;re in a committed relationship, please save your parter this pain!!!"
