Q: 

Does NuvaRing cause a lowered libido?

I've been trying to find the right birth control option for awhile now...pills make me depressed and lower my libido to an embarrassingly low level. I'm in a relationship and while I was on the pill, some times the thought of having sex is just straight up annoying -- SO NOT ME. I love my boyfriend, I'm attracted to him...I just didn't feel the urge.

I've been off the pill for about 6 weeks now and EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED. I feel like my normal self. But the only problem is now that we have to use condoms. Gross. Hate them. I obviously want a safe and dependable contraception method so what I'm wondering is -- HAS ANYBODY NOTICED LOWERED LIBIDO WITH NUVA RING? It's sort of the only option I have left to try.
