In response to NuvaRing/Weight Gain posted by Hkay:
Since Nuva Ring is relatively new, they indicate that if you are sensitive to other forms of hormones, Nuva Ring will likely react the same way, but it is a lower-dose. On the website for nuva ring, it says weight gain is a reported side effect, as is changes in appetite. Be sure your weight gain is not caused by another more serious side effect, edema, which is severe water retention. Good luck with your birth control choices!
