birth control
"I was on NuvaRing for a little over a year, and finally took it out because it caused too many negative symptoms that I tries to ignore because it was an easy and reliable birth control method. I constantly had hard, cystic bumps on the jawline which would flare up twice a month, moodiness, random stabbing pain in my abdomen. When I finally gave it up, it was because it was preventing pregnancy, but sex was pretty pointless while on it because I had so much vaginal irritation, and it was making me emotional because I could not enjoy it at all. I've been off NuvaRing for two months now, and these symptoms are gone, so I know they were linked. My skin is clearing up, and the irritation is gone."
