birth control
"The first 12 months were great. No noticeable side effects and I didn't get pregnant. Then I started having side effects. I couldn't wear contacts anymore, they would literally fall out onto my cheeks. I had them refitted and the problem persisted. At the same time I started experiencing what were likely aura migraines. My forehead, upper lip, and hands would go numb. I would experience large blind spots and large dark moving objects in my vision. These problems happened multiple times a week. I was extremely fatigued and depressed. I stopped using the Nuva Ring when I realized I didn't have the symptoms on the off week. None of the doctors I saw thought to recommend going off Nuva Ring. Symptom free for 6 months. Off Nuva Ring 6 months."
