I had it and LOVED it! I'm TERRIBLE with pills so it was the BEST. I never had any side effects, it was easy to use and I didn't have any babies so it did it's job! I moved amd changed insurance and ended up having to go back to pills but I really liked it when I was on it. The pills, I can like tell I'm on somethin, or my bodies different...if that makes ANY sense?!?! Lol! I feel like my moods and emotional/mental health are MUCH more impacted by the pills. I didn't have an issue like that at all with the NuvaRing.
