birth control
"NuvaRing has been good to me. I have issues with anxiety and so I feared that going on birth control would play (negatively) with my mood/anxiety. However, I've had a good experience with it, and have experienced no negative mood symptoms. Sure, I get the occasional mood swing, however this is nothing unmanageable. The one and only complaint is that I have gained a good 10 pounds. It honestly just feels like water retention, but slightly annoying as I was very happy with my weight prior to NuvaRing. Otherwise, this contraceptive has been good to me, my health and my mood."
