Positive Nuvaring/Eluryng Experience!!!

Experience

Hi! I just wanted to share my experience with the generic version of the Nuvaring which is the Euryng.

I'm 29 and have regular periods and I've never ever been on hormonal birth control so this was new and uncharted territory for me.

I wasn't looking for anything super long term (only wanting BC for about a year and a half before TTC) so my options were: pills (daily), patch (weekly), and the ring (monthly).

I didn't like the daily aspect of the pills.
I was leaning towards the patch but I have a BMI of 31 and due of it's contraindications is a BMI of 30+. So my doc suggested the ring. She said some people struggle sometimes sticking things up their vag but I was currently using a menstrual cup during my period so I didn't have any icks about it.

ICYDK, with the ring you insert and leave it in for 3 weeks then take it out for 1 week then reinsert a new one.

My side effects were:
• nausea which occurred in the evening, around bed time
• decreased libido - which is weird because my partner and i had just gotten married and you'd expect things to be exciting LOL but naw

I'm 10 months in and happy to report: no baby:)
