"nuvaring worked well for me. i did not get pregnant. i had it for about six months. but i noticed my appetite increased and i gained 40 lbs. it&#039;s terrible. i can&#039;t drop the weight and i&#039;ve been on the ring for 4 months. i weighed 135lbs, now i weigh 155lbs. but better 40 lbs than 40lbs and a baby!"
