NO Sex Drive AT ALL On NuvaRing.?!
Question:
NO Sex Drive AT ALL On NuvaRing.?
I have been on the ring for about a month now and I have noticed a DRASTIC change in my sex drive. I used to be horny all the time and wanted sex all the time. Now it seems like I can't get in the mood?? Does anyone know what I should do? I don't want to change birth control because this is working very well. The sex drive is the only problem I'm having.

I found this question in another forum:
I've been using the nuva ring for about 5 months now. At first my doctor told me that my body had to adjust, but I am experiencing more and more side effects with each cycle. I am experiencing: severe headaches brown dischard (the whole month) depression (I don't care about anything or anyone) moodiness (I am insanely angry. I think I could honestly hurt someone) Urinary (kidney stones and frequent Infections) No Sex Drive (I don't want sex, don't even want to think about it, its yucky! Aches and Pains (back, neck, legs and chest) I didn't realize all these symptoms were associated with the nuva ring. I was about to see a mental health professional, as I am scared I could hurt myself, husband, children, or someone. I have never been so angry in my life. I feel INSANE
