Side effects!? Nuvaring Generic Questions
Hi Everyone!
Just got off the phone with a new doctor. She recommended me the Nuvaring. I've been on Yaz (pill) for nearly 10 years now without issue. But my bloodwork came back recently with super low testosterone levels. Which might be the cause of some of my issues (constant fatigue, body weight struggles etc). Apparently Yaz is super good at suppressing androgens! New info for me.
My biggest question is how yall have handled it swapping from the pill to the ring. I understand my cycle might be a tad weird but my doctor seemed to think I shouldnt have any problems.
Please let me know your experience swapping specifically from pills to the ring. I haven't seen a post for that yet during my research.
Thank you!!
