May 30, 201313 yr I was on the nuva ring for years....it is hormonal but I never gained any weight on it.
May 30, 201313 yr You would just have to decide what's better for you. I'm terrible with remembering to take my pills so the nuva ring was cool. I wore it for three weeks and then removed it one week and then started over.
May 30, 201313 yr Grl I dnt want it to be out lol I confussed grl I didnt know it come out Lol the nuva ring is a plastic ring that you insert in your vajayjay for three weeks and then you take it out after the third week. You dispose of it. During the week that it is out.......your period should come. Then after that 4th week is over you put a fresh ring back in. They are very handy and Planned Parenthood will alow you to get three at a time....and you have to store the extras in the fridge. I was on the nuva ring so long my period stopped coming all together until I stopped using the ring it came back after a month or so.
May 30, 201313 yr Be careful. Some pills need to be crushed. I got pregnant while on the pill. HW:358 DOS:338 CW:278 SD:1/28/13
May 30, 201313 yr I'm on the shot ( depo ). I've been on it for about 2 years now. I like it. It's a shot u get every 3 months
May 30, 201313 yr Check with your surgeon I was told the pill becomes the least effective. I got mirena one month before my surgery. I love it:) best decision I love not having a period! Surgery date 7/25/12
May 30, 201313 yr Author Thanks the depo some of my friend gained a lot of weight ok im thinking nuvaring or depo but I dnt know about me putting &taking it out I go on the 12th of june im gettn one of them lol
June 2, 201313 yr I must agree. I'm so confused about what to do after surgery. I have been on the pill for a year now and loved it, but don't want to chance getting prego post op. I tried the Nuva ring in the past, but my girlie parts lay on their back so it wouldn't stay in. So then I tried depo. My goodness did I get horrible acne and mood swings. Next came the Mirena. I was miserable for months and we couldn't figure out why. Finally after my FOURTH ER visit. A nurse practitioner pointed out that I was actually having contractions and my cervix was dilating and trying to push the Mirena out because of how tilted my uterus is. Every hospital I went to refused to take it out because of "liability" reasons. It was a terrible experience. My fiancé ended up pulling it out one day when I couldn't stand up from how bad the contractions were. So now I'm stuck. my next step is to try the Implanon and pray I don't have some kind of freakish reaction to it! Lol
June 2, 201313 yr Author Im just gonna wait because it took a year to get my period back on track I can hold out a few months after surgery to decide what to take im already nervous geesh I reallydnt need the mood swing lol Mzshay35 RNYTalk
June 3, 201313 yr I'm on the pill as I have been for years because of my PCOS. If I'm off it I will bleed for weeks to months at one time and its a lot of blood. I would get light headed from it. I'm not worried about it beyond the controlling of my period as I have been single for a while. I haven't had sex in a little over a year and not looking for a man now either. Just focusing on myself and getting to where I want to be in my life. Once that's sorted I might try dating again.
