Nuvaring and infection

Common Questions and Answers about Nuvaring and infection

nuvaring

Avatar n tn All of the extra hormones, including the hormones inside of the semen, make your vagina very sensitive to semen. When i was on the nuvaring...semen burned. Nuvaring=hormones. No nuvaring and not pregnant=fine. Now 36 weeks pregnant and semen burns.
Avatar n tn I have started to experience a lot of pain during sex. I started on Nuvaring three months ago. After the first week I got my first UTI. I was told that it was not related to the Ring. Other than the UTI everything was fine and sex was a good as it had always been. 4 weeks later I had my first yeast infection also told that it was not related to the Ring. Following a week of treatment for the yeast infection I attempted to have sex and it was so painful that we had to stop.
Avatar f tn could be a yeast infection. i went through this for 2 months this year and every time i had sex it would sting and burn. i went to the doctor twice and the first he gave me only medicine, and the second time it was for me and my bf. it turns out (because me and my bf don't use a condom im on the pill) that he kept passing the yeast infection back to me (because guys dont show symptoms as my doctor said). so we both took the med stopped sex for like 1 week and everything was good again.
Avatar f tn We had sex on Sunday before I was due to put my nuvaring in that day and all was normal. Sunday night, I inserted my nuvaring and starting monday I have had the worst vagina odor ever. I smelled it Monday, washed it and went on my way but it doesn't go away. It is not a fishy smell, it is a foul rotten smell. My boyfriend and I were having sex last night and he smelled it and asked me about it.
Avatar f tn YES! It can cause diabetes! It is listed as glucose intolerance in the side effects. I went though 8 months of #@!& on nuvaring. I went to the doc because I wad exhausted all of the time, fuzzy brained, and starting to loose my hair. When I asked if it could be the birth control, my question was dismissed. They tried to put me on all of this medication for slightly elevated blood sugar. I refused. I decided to go off the nuvaring, which I was on only for acne.
Avatar f tn Uh, you are supposed to replace every month, the nuvaring is only good for 3 weeks at a time. Unless you are trying to get pregnant or get an infection of some kind I would recommend changing it out and making sure you aren't already pregnant before putting in a new one, hormones in birth control can cause harm to an unborn baby.
Avatar f tn Yeast infection, I use to be on the nuvaring and it did that to me to, my doctor took me off it and put me on the pill
Avatar n tn I had switched to a birth control called the nuvaring which i dont recommend by the way, and all of the sudden i start feeling nauseaous after eating, so i finally get back on Yaz, I still feel nauseaous after eating and now i have a discharge that looks like a yeast infection but i have no other symptoms of a yeast infection. I am really confused. Please help!!
889551 tn?1416184483 Lexi is nine months old now, and I quit birth control three or four months ago because I tried the NuvaRing and hated it (my cervix was really low when I put it in, and it made it uncomfortable). This month I had spotting at ovulation, and I didn't think anything of it until DH told me that the condom had broke two days before the spotting started. At 8 dpo I started spotting and have been spotting brown and red ever since.
730826 tn?1317943334 I'm on nuvaring too and I'm usually way more than 3 days late. I'll take the ring out on Sunday and then won't get my period until Friday. I know how you feel, though. I get totally freaked out when my period is late too. But the reply before yours, peekawho, is right. Wait a week and test again.
Avatar n tn The area itchs and it almost feels like a yeast infection, but there is no odor. I have been on Nuvaring for several years. I know I do not have an STD beause I have been to the OBGYN twice. Does anyone know if this is a yeast infection, or possibly something else. I was just taking antibiotics for a recent oral surgery.
Avatar n tn I've had the nuvaring for a few months now. Ever since I started using it I've had one UTI, and a kidney infection that was so severe I was hospitalized with a fever of 104. I don't remove my nuvaring to have a period (my doctor said it was completely fine to take out the old one and insert a new one to prevent period.) I take it out usually before sex and wash my hands and rinse the ring off before re-inserting it.
Avatar f tn The next day I was feeling really weak and sick, and I started waking up really nauseous every morning, and I end up going back to sleep to sleep it off and stay in bed until afternoon. Yesterday I freaked out because my back was hurting and with the nausea I thought I might have a kidney infection or something, but it's kinda been coming and going.
7600327 tn?1393358885 I was on the pill and took it at the same time everyday and went to the doctors about having a really bad headache and needing a wee a lot and test for a uti but found I was pregnant instead was very unexpected and have got my first scan next week
Avatar n tn I am also allergic to latex and tried the NuvaRing and had quite a severe latex allergic reaction to it. I ripped my Gyno a new one after that happened. I understand that it's technically latex-free, but it contains the same main ingredient as latex (which is what caused the reaction) and I feel that needs to be mentioned on the box at least.
Avatar f tn I had sex fathers day and the 29th and the condom broke but i hav the nuva ring and i got my period but its lasts 3-4 days well i put nuvaring back in on july 5th then had unprotected sex (pull out) on the 7th of july i feel different always hungry n and expect period in a wk wen can i test or how do i kno for sure if test is negative could it be from nuvaring because with my 2yo i had missed period n tested negative
Avatar n tn ve had this same issue, I went to the gynecologist on separate occasions because sometimes it seems to be too much to handle and they said I had a yeast infection and prescribed a vaginal cream. However, the pain has still continued. If you have symptoms of itching and an ordor, which not everyone gets, you might have a yeast infection.
Avatar f tn Hello, First of all, thanks so much for taking our questions and helping ease the anxiety and uncertainty many of us face... :-) I have just been told by my GP that I have eversion of the transformation zone or cervical ectropion (are these the same?). I had been spotting after sex for a couple of months and I decided to have it checked... and now I'm so scared!!! I am especially worried that it may be a sign of cervical cancer. I have a history of HPV (well, not sure!)...
Avatar f tn Can a pelvic ultrasound miss a ruptured cyst that may have happened 3-4 weeks earlier and that may have cause a pelvic infection?
Avatar f tn I have been to the doctor multiple times and they run tests for all STDs as well as utis and vaginal problems, all the tests come back negative. I am frustrated and looking for answers, was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this before and knows what to do help!
Avatar f tn I started the nuvaring today and is it suppose to be like this i went to go pee and i wanted to check if was still here and stuff well i checked i felt it soon as i u know... Is that right i have had it in all day too...
Avatar f tn 3 months ago I switched to Nuvaring from the pill. Hubby and I were going to wait until the spring to start ttc. My dr said I could leave my ring in for 4 weeks to avoid my period so technically I haven't had my period since October 9. I have exactly 1 week until I can either take it out for my period or leave it in to avoid it. I have been bloated and hungry all the time. Yesterday I was exhausted after shopping for 2 hours and napped when I woke up I was so nauseous.
Avatar n tn Well a few days ago it felt like I was starting to get a yeast infection (burning, itchy and red) then the next day I felt fine (for about 2 days) then the 3rd day it felt a little icky but not bad (I didnt know if it was irritated since it was hot outside?
Avatar f tn s hands or on an inanimate object has never been shown to result in HIV infection. The reasons for this are at least two-fold. First the HIV virus is quite fragile and begins to die almost immediately after leaving the body and being exposed to the environment. Dead or even "wounded/dying" virus does not efficiently cause infections.
