birth control
"I have been using the Nuvaring for 8 years now and I will never ever switch to anything else.  To start, I don't do birth control pills very well because I forget to take them.  Lucky me, I really don't have to remember much with the ring.  All I have to do is circle the date in my calendar for the days I need to take the ring out and put it back in.  I didn't feel like having a period in June (gotta love this part!) so I just kept my ring in during my "period week" and changed the ring normally after that week.  I have had absolutely NO side effects.  I have little cramping and I know the EXACT dates I will flow.  Now, I do have mood swings, but that is normal for women, regardless what birth control methods you use.  I HIGHLY recommend it!"
