"i&#039;ve been on the ring for 6 months. before that i was on the &quot;ortho tri cyclen lo&quot; pills for almost a year. for the first 4 months i was raving about it to everyone who brought up birth control, be it customers, friends, family, etc. things have changed since, my sex drive is low, i&#039;m an emotional trainwreck for no reason. it&#039;s nice not having to worry about it everyday and it&#039;s been great at preventing pregnancy. now it&#039;s harder to just put those negative things aside when i feel like it&#039;s affecting my relationship and myself emotionally. but i&#039;m still deciding whether to stop using it because i don&#039;t want to just use condoms now since i&#039;m not open to taking any other hormonal birth control at this moment."
