"i am a 26 yo, no babies or pregnancies. i am very sensitive to hormones. the pill made me almost suicidal so my doc suggested the ring. the first month went ok. the second month i developed a horrible yeast infection a few days after insertion. i took diflucan and the symptoms seems to reside. but the next month the same thing! a few days after insertion a horrible yeast infection! i took diflucan and it did not clear up. my doc recommended that monistat works better so i tried that too. i even had my partner get tested to make sure he wasn&#039;t carrying it. the monistat did not clear it either. i had terrible pain and burning and finally just took nuvaring out early. the symptoms went away almost immediately."
