Anyone on the birth control patch? My husband doesn’t like the NuvaRing cuz he’s a whinny baby. I…

@mrs.bautista, oh no! I definitely want to stay on birth control, but I’m only willing to do the ring patch or pills

You could get the depo shot. You get it every 3 months

@batmom16, no I did that as a teenager and it was very bad for me. LOTS of spotting and bleeding and I was a witch to say the least. Did not do good for me at all. I wish it did.

@mrs.bautista, the shot didn’t do good for me, I’m too chicken to get the implant stuff. I don’t do a lot of swimming/sweating so hopefully the patch will be good and not fall off

I know it affects everyone different, but it made me super emotional. Very convenient just putting it on once a week though. I switched to the pill. I have an alarm set on my phone to remember it daily, lol

Patch starts peeling off before the week is up. Especially in this heat

I thought I couldn’t remember the pills either . But I set an alarm on my phone with BIRTH CONTROL in caps lol and so far so good . I just keep it in my purse in case I end up being out at that time or something so I’m literally never late .

Why not just remove the nuva ring when having sex?

@mimixtmn, I could try that. I’m afraid I won’t put it back in or something though, but you have like a 3 hour limit to put it back in.

@liz41395, I would def give it a try, it’s so hard (at least for me) to find a bc that works for you and your life I wouldn’t want to change if it’s currently working good for you.
