I am scared...help me pleas?!
Question: I am scared!.!.!.help me pleas!?
I was on the nuvaring, this was my third cycle with it!. But one day before I inserted my new one I started getting morning sickness just like I did when I was pregnant!. After a few days it worsened so I removed the ring!. Well that's been 5 days ago now and I'm still sick as ever, I took a prego test and it turned up negative last week, and I'm bleeding now so I know I can't be pregnant!. What else could be going on here!? I'm at my wits end and can't afford an expensive doctors visit right now!. I'm scared, I can barely eat!. And now I am having headaches as well!. Any helpful advice is much appreciated!. ThanksWww@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
First!.!.!. Please calm down!.!.!. I know you feel sick right now, but we can get it worked out!.!.!.!. Also, I can assure you that you are going to be OK!.!.!.
Second, eventhough the NuvaRing is a low dose estrogen, it would appear from your "morning sickness" comments that you were getting a high dose of estrogen which would appear to be the cause of your symptoms!. Stopping the NuvaRing was the right thing to do!.!.!. The next thing you need to do is talk to your GP about the situation!. (Call Him) It would appear that maybe the NuvaRing is not for you, but your doctor should make this call!.
As far as the headache symptom, I would guess this is unrelated, but I am not an expert on NuvaRing!. Either way, I would not consider the symptom to be serious in nature!.
Also, as far as how "long" it will be in your system!.!.!. Any issue like this tells you that your body is not responding correctly, so I would assume you have no protection at the moment from pregnancy, and probably haven't for at least the last week!. This does not appear to be a problem, however, because you are mentrating at the moment!. Until these issues are work out, however, please do not assume anything!.!.!.
In short, you are going to be OK!. Please do not worry about your health!.!.!.!. This is just a issue with the NuvaRing that you need to talk with your doctor about!. Also, If you do not have the money, then call him on the phone and explain the situation!.!.!. I can assure you he will understand and if he does not, then you need another doctor!.!.!.
Good Luck and I Hope this Helps!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I can't afford a doctor right now either, so I know how it is!. You MUST see a doctor!. Any number of things could be going on!. You could be having a miscarriage or you could have a bad infection!. Either make a payment arrangement with your doctor or go to your local health department or emergency room!. This could also be nothing, but why take the chance!? Good luck!. Hope everything turns out okay!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
um,
O!.K, do you not have a free clinic where you are!? How was the bleeding!? Light or heavy!? (you can still be pregnant if you are spotting etc) and imo you still could be pregnant, even after doing a test, it could've been too early to pick up on the hormones!.
try and relax hun, that wont help your headaches!!

You definitely need advice from a doctor or nurse!. Can you call the place that sold you the nuvaring!? That's were I would start first!. There is something wrong!. Good luck!. I'll be praying for you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I am on the Nuvaring, too, and I get nauseated every once in a while, too, especially in the beginning of the 1st week and the 3rd week!. Everyone is different, but my OB told me that any birthcontrol is supposed to "trick" your body into thinking you are already pregnant that is why it works!. Although I have never been pregnant before, thus I wouldn't know how my body would react to a pregnancy, the OB told me that most likely I will be experiencing similar symptoms to what I experience with the birth control!.
So the bottom line is, your reaction to the NuvaRing is normal and common!. At the bottom I provided a link with the NuvaRing physician's information leaflet for your information!. There is a lot of information here, so read it - maybe it will clue you in on some other stuff you're having!.
Also, for future reference, too, your pharmacist (the one you get your Rx from!?) ask him or her!. They know a lot about birth control and although they will tell you they cannot diagnose you with anything or give you medical advice, they will generally tell you if what you may be experiencing are some of the side effects you could be experiencing!. Or not!. If they don't answer your question go to another pharmacy and ask!. A pharmacist is a physician's and nurses's best consultant when it comes to medications and compatibilities!. :)
Secondly!. Now that you've stated that you've taken out your birthcontrol, I really hope you are using a second method as it takes 24 hours to get the hormones out of your system!. In fact, with the NuvaRing being a slightly less hormones method (I think), you should not leave it out for longer than 3 hours!. You don't have to go the doctor's office to ask a question!. Call the OB clinic where your MD is and ask to talk to a nurse!. If they say they don't have one, say you have an urgent question!. They have to get you a nurse then!. Even if they are mean or whatever (which they shouldn't be by any means) explain to them that you cannot afford to go to the doctor, that you have this situation and see what they say!. 9 times out of 10 the nurse will tell you that she will ask YOUR doctor herself about your problem and will call you back with advice or tell you that you need to come in!.
Most likely they will tell you to try this thing one more month and call them if you have bad nausea again!. If so, they may ask you to come in and adjust your birthcontrol or just give you a smaller dose one!.
Not to get person or anything, but my first birth control was the pill!. It was horrible!. I was puking for literally 24 hours on my 2nd week and I felt SO sick I stopped taking it, too!. My doctor gave me another pill with lower level hormones and it wasn't making me puke, but rather VERY nauseated!. He then gave me the NuvaRing and I haven't looked back since!. It makes me nauseous sometimes but it's a lower dose hormone birth control (it works just as well!) and I don't have to worry about taking it on a regular basis!.
I hope you get your situation figured out!. Good luck, I hope this helped!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
