Im sooo glad I found this forum. I stopped using nuvaring at the end of october 2009 and had my period like normal. Its december 21st and I havent had another period yet.

I keep getting stomach aches so I havent eaten anything for a while. I had sex once in early...

They recommended that I limit my diet when this first happened. That didn't do much obviously, and I bet anyone who does it just gets worse. Then I realized that I was only eating about 1,000...
