I really would like to start the nuvaring but am concerned about the side effects associated with hormones.I have had terrible side effects with the pill in the past, weight gain, mood swings, depression etc. Has anyone experienced these side effects with the nuvaring? TIA

I haven't had any side effects from the ring, and I've been using it for 14 months.

No weight gain, I had some mood swings for the first month, but I had a lot going on at that time too.
