On Nuva Ring, Still On Period, Terrible Cramps, Gained Weight. Normal?
Hello, I went on the nuvaring about a month ago. My doctors office sent me my 2nd nuva ring late so I kept it in about 31 days. The last couple days I started to get my period. I switched to a new nuva ring and I am still on my period even though the nuva ring is in. The past two mornings I have woken up at 530 am with terrible cramps- not able to go back to sleep without 2 advils and smoking a bowl of marijuana to make the cramps go away. Today I am very moody and I have gained about 7 pounds since going on the ring. Is all of this normal?

Hello ma'am and welcome.
Your symptoms do seem like normal side effectsn of the ring, but in such cases it is always best to visut your prescribing doctor and make sure all is well.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
