Mysweetpea, I'm always wary of diets that lead to fast weight loss. Most of the initial loss is water anyway....anyway, I wanted to contribute to this forum in case other women who are considering Nuvaring read this. I have been using Nuvaring for 5 months now and it has been the best hormonal contraceptive I have ever used. I have not gained weight, infact my figure is looking better; firmer breasts, slimmer in the waist. Yasmin used to dry me up below and decreased my sex drive drastically. I bled contantly on Implanon and had it removed after 5 months. It just seems to me that all women are different and different contraceptives work better or worse for different people. So if you are considering Nuvaring, please don't be put off by comments about weight gain. You should try it because I have read a lot of forums where women swear by it. The low dose of hormones seems to be very good for many women who used to suffer side effects on other contraceptives like the pill. You know how you feel normal and well when you aren't on the pill, that is how I feel on Nuvaring. All the best!!
