Question about the birth control patch or Nuva Ring 10 points to best answer?


short term removal

I had surgery last week for numerous female problems,( excision of endometriosis, detection of adenomyosis- 2 hernias and the removal of half of an ovary that had a large abnormal cyst.) Per the Dr.- (who is 1 of only 4 specialists for these diseases in the world) says I need to be on birth control to suppress the ovulation of that ovary until it heals otherwise I can produce a blood cyst, hematoma or other serious complications if it tries to ovulate as damaged as it is. I only need to be on something 2-3 months. Preferably 3. Problem is I get violently ill with the pill. I throw up, vertigo- I don’t no if its in relation to my women’s troubles or hereditary or what. Ive been on 6 pills and depo provera in 1.5 years and im on my 4th day of alesse (commonly known as Lybrel,or Aviane as generics)- Im not a lazy person, very athletic, and outgoing, I own a Business so I cant be throwing up and bed-ridden for 90 days nor would I even attempt it. My main question is- has anyone had the bad nausea/vomiting or other GI symptoms with the ring or patch. And is the patch even still available- Ive heard of all the lawsuits, but I only need it short term.

Also Ive tried all known remedies for taking the pill with nausea, taking it at different times, with and without food- with a milk-shake, I live on ginger and carbonated drinks to help pass nausea- and I go through more phenergan than a pregnant woman. I also tried inserting it vaginally- and I had lower GI complications but that could have been from the endo on my bowel- but Im scared to find out :) Please help!!

    i didn’t have any problems with the patch. well. some slight skin itching and discoloration that has now faded since i quit using it. but i’ve never had any problems with any birth control medications. so i can’t say how they’d do for you.

    i didn’t like the nuva ring. nothing wrong with the meds for me but i could physically feel it shifting and mentally i was always worried about it falling out or not being in the proper place to release the meds but it says you can stick in anywhere inside there and it should work. but i didn’t like it. of course, i’ve had a child so if you haven’t maybe it would be better for you.

    sorry if that didn’t help very much
