NuvaRing

How do you feel about the NuvaRing? I started using the pill a little over 2 years ago and had so many problems with them. I was on 4 different pills in 2 years so I finally just stopped taking birth control all together. I have been off of it for about 2 months now and I have lost 17 pounds. I have not made any other changes in my diet or anything. I gained a lot of weight while I was on the pill and I’m nervous that if I start back up on another type of birth control my weight will come back. What are other issues you have noticed with it?? I can’t decide if I want to stay off of birth control or give this a try.
