"i have been using the nuvaring for a few months now. in this time i lost my virginity and it was extremely painful and i had no sex drive. i figured the pain was just from the first time but the pain continued every time i had intercourse and i rarely even wanted to have sex; because it hurt and i had no sex drive. my boobs have grown a size and i have gained approximately 10 pounds. i thought there was something wrong with my body and the low sex drive was a symptom of depression. after reading the reviews i feel so relieved to know there&#039;s nothing wrong with me. i&#039;ve decided to switch birth controls, however other than those side effects, the nuvaring has kept me from getting pregnant and regulated my period"
