birth control
"NuvaRing is the only birth control I've ever used (other than condoms) and so far I like it. It's a simple process to put it in and take it out and I love that I don't have to stress about it every day. I used to have unpredictable periods so I LOVE knowing when it's coming every month. Negatives. I have experienced some serious PMS symptoms since I've been on the ring (not every time but I think it's getting more frequent) like irritability and general emotionalness, some pretty severe cramps (which I rarely got before), and tiredness. Recently, I had a super heavy flow during my period plus cramps. I've been getting some headaches and back pain too but I'm not sure it's because of the ring. I've been on NuvaRing for about 6 months now."
