The nuvaring is awesome. Last I knew (2 years ago) it had the lowest possible dose of hormones of any birth control out there, which was a big plus for me. I hope it works out well for you.<BR/><BR/>I love your sisterlocks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534145201006195869.post-62749017512804449862008-01-16T22:02:00.000-05:002008-01-16T22:02:00.000-05:00Hopefully you read comments from old posts...It so...Hopefully you read comments from old posts...<BR/>It sounds like the Mirena IUD is the right method of contraception for you. Don't get me wrong, the Nuva Ring is great, you only have to insert it monthly and it has wonderful efficacy, but if you are looking for long term nonpermanent contraception Mirena is for you. many ladies will not have any menses after the first few months (statistically 20 % after the first year) and those who do say they are very light. Yes I have a Mirena and love it and yes I am biased because of my profession, but you should truely consider it. No I do not work for Mirena!<BR/>check it out at Mirena.com<BR/> ...sisterlocked 8 months, lovin it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534145201006195869.post-45722964428601904712007-12-12T18:16:00.000-05:002007-12-12T18:16:00.000-05:00I became pregnant on the Nuva Ring after being on ...I became pregnant on the Nuva Ring after being on the pill for 13 years straight. I thought I had some time at least after not being on the pill for my body to regulate itself, but I was wrong. The key is that with the Nuva Ring, it must be refrigerated all the way up until it is inserted. If not, it will be ineffective. I believe that this is what happened to me as well as two other people I know. <BR/><BR/>I would say that given you previous experience with an IUD as a reliable method, you might want to look into Mederma which is an IUD with progesterone that is slowly released. resulting in lighter periods. I do not know if Mederma has a copper within its construction.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!ill Mamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06305431101338630035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534145201006195869.post-74113569689536373552007-12-08T22:32:00.000-05:002007-12-08T22:32:00.000-05:00Nikia, Girl you are crazy!

I stopped with the pill 2 years ago and would like to be done with hormonal birth control. I luckily stumbled on a website www.cyclebeads.com. Give the site a visit and see if it's a method that may work for you and your hubby.Goodnappshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00761058336367682963noreply@blogger.com
