birth control
"I've been on the NuvaRing since 2005 and I love it.  No pregnancies, my period shortened from about 7 days to 4 days.  I also used to have bad cramps but this helped a lot.  I've tried Ortho Tri-cyclen (hated it, gained a lot of weight that took many years to take off), Tri-Norinyl (liked this but still had to take a pill everyday), Paraguard IUD (hurt for the 1st week then was fine, expelled it after 3 months though).  My sex drive did not decrease on NuvaRing.  My only complaint is my skin is a little worse and every once in a while I have to take it out during sex.  Thumbs up from my boyfriend and myself."
