I've gone through your query. I can understand your anxiety.
NuvaRing has common side effects like vaginal infections, abdominal symptoms - nausea, vomiting, bloating, cramps, moodswings etc. And other effects like confusion, dizziness, diarrhea, constipation are rarely reported, but can be caused by it.
So I suggest you to consult your doctor for change of the contraceptive method.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Get well soon.
Regards, Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
