"i&#039;ve been on nuvaring for 4 months now. it&#039;s amazing so far. i have always had issues with heavy and painful periods. i tried the pill years ago but was unable to remember it everyday. my periods are shorter, lighter, and less painful. i always got pms before and i actually think these symptoms have improved with nuvaring. i haven&#039;t noticed any sexual dysfunction like others have. i would suggest that you check placement after intercourse, because it can be removed. give your partner a heads-up so they will know if nuvaring comes out as well."
