For Birth Control "I was on the NuvaRing for years. It was the only medication that worked to regulate my cycle and stop the heavy bleeding, spotting, and extreme cramps I experienced with my period. As soon as this generic version came out, my insurance stopped covering the NuvaRing, and I was given this. I tried it and felt terrible: nausea, a horrible headache behind my eyes, bloating, cramps, cystic acne, extreme fatigue, and spotting. Unlike others, I’ve lost weight but can’t afford that, as I’m at the bottom of my acceptable weight range. I don’t understand how this medication can even be compared to the name brand when it works this poorly."

For Birth Control "I’ve used NuvaRing in the past and had 0 issues with it. I recently decided to go back to it because the BC pill I was on was causing extreme fatigue. When I picked up my prescription from the pharmacy, I noticed I was given a generic version of NuvaRing. I’ve been through my fair share of different birth controls and have had bad experiences, so I was worried about trying something else once again. EluRyng by far has taken the #1 spot for worst birth control I have ever used. The first month was phenomenal. I had so much more energy, reduced headaches, and the easiest withdrawal week. The day after inserting the new birth control, I started having cramps nonstop, and at one point could barely walk because of how severe the pain was. I’ve had nausea and headaches every single day, which has been interfering with my job and daily life. My depression and anxiety are through the roof. I had to remove it because I couldn’t take the side effects anymore."

For Birth Control "I started the EluRyng less than a month ago. My depression has gotten worse, and every time I eat, I get really nauseous. Other than that, everything is perfect. I'm kind of overweight, so it's helping me eat a lot less."
