Common Questions and Answers about Nuvaring help acne

nuvaring

Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar f tn It did make me hormonal. Personally, I like nuvaring. Its a small flexible ring, you or your doctor insert it sort of like a tampon (but with your fingers) and it stays in place 3 weeks. It lessened my acne, I never gained weight, I had no hormonal issues with it. I hate pills, I can't remember to take them and they always made me gain weight. But the nuva ring is expensive if you don't have insurance! It's over 100 $ a month.
Avatar f tn I decided to go off the nuvaring, which I was on only for acne. I felt incredibly better after only a week and after 2 weeks I felt like super woman. I discovered many other issues stemming from nuvaring including shortness of breath and horrible completely out of character mood swings.
Avatar f tn for me but now her vagina has shrunk up such that it is impossible for me to penetrate. Her ObGyn is no help. All she suggests is a hormonal cream that causes her to break out in acne like a teenager. We saw a brief TV ad for some sort of device or ring for this but don't know it's name nor have we seen the ad again.
Avatar f tn My sister got pregnant with nuvaring :/
Avatar f tn but my mom has told me im going on the depo shot, im very upset. i hard it makes you gain over 10 pounds and gives you headahcs and can even make acne worse. im also worried about having a pap smear, do you think i will have to have one for this?
Avatar f tn i havnt had a period in two months i just got put on the nuvaring and im cramping alot is that normal..
17435300 tn?1456682805 Hey ladies, I have been on the nuvaring for almost a month now and have noticed uncontrollable and almost debilitating mood swings. I have literally cringed, cried and felt like I was crawling out of my very own skin and for no REAL reason. It has greatly effected my relationships. The main site says that common side effects are mood swings, including depression. I do have a history of being emotionally unstable.
Avatar f tn 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?
Avatar m tn Is it the nuvaring??? If you didn't put it back in, it's probably from that.
Avatar m tn um u started nuvaring, of course it messes up ur cycles................ thats pretty commen. if u feel u are pregnant take a first response early detection test. use the first morn urine.
Avatar f tn Throw the ring away and choose 1 of the 2 options below: 1. Insert a new ring immediately. This begins the next 3-week use period. You may not have a period but you may experience breakthrough spotting or bleeding. 2. Have your period and insert a new ring no later than 7 days from the time the previous ring was removed or expelled. This option should be chosen only if the ring was used continuously for the preceding 7 days.
1297979 tn?1272746390 The nuvaring always made me have weird symptoms. I swear I thought I was pregnant all the time. I never was. But if you had unprotected sex and then put it in... well you had unprotected sex. Birth control isn't going to work until a week after you put it in which is why they say to double up the method. Best thing to do is wait until you're supposed to take it out and take a pregnancy test. Or take one now since you would have had sex 2 weeks ago and it should be pretty accurate.
Avatar f tn Ive been on the NuvaRing since my 6 week check up(about 20 months). Well this is the second time ive taken my ring out on time and i have a brown period with decent sized clots. Im having normal cramps and back pain but there is very little red blood. is this normal?
1134902 tn?1296066144 I am sorry to hear about your issues with nuvaring. I had started the nuvaring for perimenopause issues my gyn said would help. No docs Ive talked to since have heard of this being used for anything other than birth control my but tubs have been tied for years.After having nuvaring in for almost three weeks i started to bleed lite not spotting and its dark and not a pleasant smell at all never have had an Oder like that in 46 years and i cant stand it.

Avatar f tn I know 10 people who have gotten the DepoShot and have gotten pregnant on it. Birth control works differently for different people. I have Mirena (been on it for 6 months) and I absolutely love it (despite the fact that the break through bleeding got annoying), my mood has been a lot better, I don't get a lot of acne breakouts anymore, and I have lost some weight on it. But for others, they had some complaints about it.
1287128 tn?1331134538 Now the lsat three months my periods have been extremely heavy with large clots (usually about the size of a lime) then when it comes it lasts for 5-6 days stops for about 2 days then comes back for 5-6 days. I am also experiencing acne which before was never an issue. I'm extremely emotional and I've gained 9lbs I'm always hungry. I went to the doctor last month who gave me a script for nuvaring which I hate hormonal bc so I haven't started taking it.
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.
