I use the Nuvaring and overall have been happy with it. I used to be on the combined pill mycrogynon and had very bad pms with it but my pms is definitely more manageable on the ring. The only negative for me is that I have endometriosis and it doesn’t stop my periods when I put another ring in straight away and does nothing to reduce the pelvic pain I get.
