alrighty im going to the doctor this week and im thinking about switching my method of bc to the nuva rign from the pill....but iv done some research and it seems that the nuva ring has a higher likelyhood of heart complications due to a different type of progeterin used than in the pill....im basicly looking for additional information and opinions from users. thank you

Nuva ring????

Well, I would guess that people are not familiar with the ring... It is just another delivery method for the hormones in the birth control pill. It is a round plastic ring that lives in the vagina (because you put it there yourself, so if you can't touch yourself deep in the vagina, this method is not for you!). The plastic is impregnated with the hormones and time releases them... It may be true about the progesterone and the heart, but there are those risks we take... The regular pill has possibilities of that as well as DVT, etc... Try it, you may like it... Probably a good method for those who forget the pill!K
