This drug is an excellent birth control. But after having my first child, I am having bad side effects on this drug. It is causing me to have very bad nausea and depression and while I was losing a lot of weight before getting back on birth control, I am not losing any now.

At first I was scared to take the product because of the side effects. When my period hit i just took the pill because it was painful & heavy the next day my period was gone. So far no painful migranes, & no cramps. Its trully changed my life.

I use the nuva ring for my endometriosis and I am so shocked at the results. After trying everything under the sun, having bad reactions to pills, failed surgeries, the nuva ring has me completely symptom free! No more painful ovulation, no more painful intercourse, no more generalize pain in the abdomen, my periods are easier. I have had GREAT success!! I LOVE THIS THING! The only thing I really hate about it is that it falls out during sex. So I've gotten into the habit of just taking it out. I'm not sure how bad that is though :( But in the grand scheme of things, my quality of life has improved so much that removing a vaginal ring before sex is NO BIG DEAL compared to how much my life sucked with endometriosis.
