I did Nuvaring for most of college and gained about 50 pounds between the years. However, I never associated the weight gain with the Nuvarring. The only different I noted was I was more emotionally stable during my premenstrual time. I have not really been able to lose the weight but again I never thought to associate it with Nuvaring.

It is pretty commonly known that bc in general does tend to cause weight gain, so your weight gain in such a short time sounds more intense/relted to the bc. I know that Nuvaring is a lesser steroid option - maybe you can ask the gyno for a different prescription?

Good luck!
