"i started having irregular periods when i started taking other medicine and sometimes i wouldn&#039;t have a period or i would bleed for 7-10 days. my doctor suggested i try birth control and after hearing all the options i chose the nuvaring. i am glad that i did. since starting, my cycle has been like clock work. i put the nuvaring in for 3 weeks, remove and few days later my period starts. when i put it back in the next week my period stops. i love it and although i don&#039;t really need it for birth control it is a great way to make your irregular cycles regular again."
