"the nuvaring is very easy to use however i had some odd problems with. i didn&#039;t gain any weight or get acne. the only problem that i did have with it was the dryness. i was very dry during sex and before. the doctor recommended that we use lubricant and remove the ring which we did and that didn&#039;t help to much. the worst part was the itchiness that i had around the lips. the doctor told me that would go away and that i needed to use the product longer. however, the itchiness got worse and the whole vaginal area became very dry and painful. during urination it would burn. i was tested for urinary infection and yeast infection and the doctor did not find anything. after 3 months i had enough of the itching and not that great of a sex drive."
