Nuvaring and Sore Breasts

I've been on Nuvaring for about 5 months, and last month, my breasts became sore. They've been sore pretty much constantly since. Does anyone know what I can do about this, or why it's happening after so long? I've been on Mircette and Alesse before (Mircette for 4 consecutive years), and never had this problem before. Thanks!!!

Hi laeriphea, welcome!

Have you changed your diet? An increase in caffeine (chocolate, coffee, sodas etc.) or salt could be causing your discomfort. I hope you're feeling better soon.

Good luck,
