When I'm on the ring it takes the pain off for about a week then I'm still in pain

I think it raised my BP and it caused headaches... could be because of the hormones or the High BP

Seemed to be the best help out of all of them with little side effects

really easy after you get over the squeemishness of inserting it, didn't forget it like the pill, no noticable side effects

LOL I have a funny story about the Nuva Ring... but alas, it didn't work well enough.

It only makes me have periods. It doesn't acutally teat PCOS.

helped with the excessive bleeding... everything else intensified

This helped with my vertigo and nausea I get before my period but the side effects were to much for me. I was so emotional I would just start crying for no reason, sapping at the littlest thing. I am already an emotional person so this did not help.
Too Soon To Tell
Started using nuvaring on Nov. 3. Can't really tell if I've had any side effects. So far, I feel fine and am relieved that I do not have to worry about a pill. To be continued....
