Stopping nuvaring weight gain
Common Questions and Answers about Stopping nuvaring weight gain
nuvaring
I was on the Nuvaring and after many different kinds of BC it was the one I loved. It's the only time my periods were regular but the hormone levels were perfect. I didn't gain weight or get moody. And stopping and starting my period was a piece of cake, not like when I was on the pill.
Hi there,
I am a 29 year old female - and about 7 months ago I stopped using Nuvaring. I already had a bit of adult acne and some weight gain before I stopped, but after I stopped the acne went a little crazy - on the lower half of my face and my neck. It has also been a bit over 6 months since I've had a period, which is beginning to freak me out.
I've really never done birth control long term but I know i really need to find something that works for me. My fiance wants to have a baby soon after the little one we have coming in February so I have to pee proactive about family planning lol. I'm nervous that it'll make me gain weight. I'm thinking I'll try the pill since I'm leary of implants and things have to put inserted by a doctor. Has anyone had experiences with the pill and the side effects?
I've had pills and nuvaring. I'm in the same boat as you. I forgot pills. I'm scared the shot will make me gain weight. I'm allergic to latex so can't use the patch. My doctor won't do IUDs for personal reasons which I agree with. My coworker got the implanon and she is allergic to it and itches like crazy and she said it really hurts. I think I'll end up going back on nuvaring. I didn't gain weight.
m 15weeks). (only managed to end up at 176-178 from 192 before getting pregnant. I found I gain weight on ANY birth control. I was on Nuvaring and put on 10lbs in 3 months.. NO THANKS)
My best friend bled the whole time on depo. btw, my dr. said I'm VERY fertile and advised me that if DH and I don't want more babies after this one for a while to get on BC ASAP.
I was started on coreg 6.25 two tmes per day. The dr recently reduced me to 3.125 because of weight gain. I am still gaining weight. I decided to stop it altogether and did not tell my dr. My resting pulse is up as well as my pulse rate upon exertion. I just stopped the coreg. Will this regulate itself in a few days.
There are so many options out there you should speak to your gyno about your preferences
I've never gained weight on the pill...I've heard of the depo shot making women gain weight...but everyone's different.
LEGALLY your mother can't force you to get the shot. IT can make you gain weight, I put 50+ lbs on with it.
Personally I'd suggest the Nuvaring if it's an option. I spent 3 months on it and LOVED It!
The reason is Nuvaring is low dose, you won't normally put weight on with it, and it's easier than a pill and you don't have to remember it every day the same time.
My younger sister got the depo shot for about 4 years and she has been off for about a year or so she has yet to receive a regular period gain massive weight also she has been having skin problems that we think has to do with the depo...I also kno someone who got one of the rings not sire witch one but she go prego & the couldn't find the ring inside her ...so I'm going to say the pill or maybe the patch if they still offer them ..
I chose the nuvaring. I was told the arm implant wouldn't help regulate my periods and the pill and depo shot can help weight gain. My choice was between the IUD and nuvaring.
So, i'm thinking of switching my birth control. i was on the pill, but sometimes i forgot to take it and i don't take it at the same time always. i was reading up on depo provera...i've heard some great things & then i have heard some complete horror stories! can anyone on this pill tell me about their experiences please? i have read you don't get your period anymore, tons of weight gain, hair loss, increase your risk of getting breast cancer...i mean is all of this true.
I tried a few other doctors and none of them were any help either. They all just said the migraines and weight gain and missing periods were normal and that I should just lose weight.
After the three months on the NuvaRing, my period returned naturally, but it was irregular for a a couple of years. Since January, I hadn't had a real period. I've had spotting that was sort of sticky and brown--not the right color at all--but not a real period.
ve been thinking alot about getting the patch because I know I will not remember to take the pill the way it should be take and do not want the shot due to the weight gain I got before when I used the shot. This seems like the best option for me. Has anyone else used the patch? What are you're thoughts on it? Will it stop your period or affect it at all?
