"i tried a couple forms of the pill and found i was allergic, head to toe covered in hives! so my doctor recommended the nuvaring. i&#039;ve been on it for almost 2 years and it has worked very well! acne went away, no obvious weight gain/loss. its a lot of money, but a lot cheaper than a baby! i recommend this form of birth control to anyone sexually active. easy to remember, just mark your calendar!"
