Birth control

Has anyone here ever tried the Nuva ring birth control ? After I had my son 5 months pp I got on the depo which was a mistake cause it made me gain hella weight and I was just not myself but I’ve been looking into going back on birth control and I’ve been looking at the nuva ring but can’t decide if I should just get that cause I can stop it at anytime or the nexplanon or retry the depo I need advice I’ve only ever been on the depo shot and the pills

I got pregnant on it. My daughter is now 13 That can happen on any bc though

I had it, the only problem was I couldn’t get it out myself and needed help

I use natural cycles and take my tempreture every morning 🙂 when it comes around ovulation I do ovulation tests just to double check 🙂

@Chelsi I’ve read if it’s used on time and all like down to a T then it’s almost 99% effective but I’m not entirely sure what to choose cause I want another baby I just can’t right now

@Alyson that’s my fear cause like I don’t wanna be able to not get it out or be able to not put it in correctly

@Erica going in is easy, coming out was hard for me. I was also 16 at the time and I have this weird thing where sticking fingers in there far makes me queasy. Even having/knowing the Mirena was in there made me queasy. So maybe it was just me lol 🤣

It’s like the birth control pills as in same hormones and regulated periods. My cycle was normal with it and I had irregular periods especially when I was on depo. I didn’t gain weight with the ring but I was also on it for like a few months like 3-4. I liked it but I just didn’t like putting it in and digging it out lol.

@Nathalie I’ve read a lot about it and it seems pretty easy and self explanatory I’m just worried of the risk of pregnancy cause sometimes people don’t like to use condoms all the time but i also am safe with it to but sometimes I’d like to feel Extra protected by bc but I’m also just worried about getting imbalanced hormones again

I wanted to try it as well but it doesn't work for those trying to breastfeed

I never got pregnant in it. Was on it for years. Hubs got a snip snip after my son was born so I'm thankful I don't have to use birth control anymore.
