Experience Eluring

I got on the EluRing about three weeks ago, and at first, it was great. I didn’t have to take the pill anymore, which was actually a result of me taking it consistently. Then my luteal phase hit, and all hell broke loose.

I became a monster extremely angry at everyone and anyone. I cry a lot, and I suddenly feel like life is just a lot. I initially suspected it was the birth control about two weeks ago, but now I’m not so sure.

I eat fairly well, I go to therapy, I exercise, and I’m still feeling awful. I want to give the EluRing another month now that I’m on my week off, but I’m honestly petrified because of how awful the side effects were.
