NuvaRing weight gain is a phenomenon that has been reported by many women. In fact, the Full Prescribing Information issued with this product mentions "weight gain" as a NuvaRing side effect in three separate sections. Healthcare providers have noted that one of the most frequent questions they hear from women who are considering using the NuvaRing birth control method, "Does the NuvaRing make you gain weight?"

Weight Gain: One of the Most Common NuvaRing Side Effects

As noted on both the prescribing information and the NuvaRing website, published by the manufacture of NuvaRing, Organon USA, weight gain is one of the most common side effects reported by NuvaRing users, along with:

• vaginal infections and irritation
• vaginal secretions
• headache, and
• nausea

Weight Gain Is One of NuvaRing's Adverse Reactions

The Prescribing Information for NuvaRing includes a section entitled "Adverse Reactions" which states that in a number of clinical trials studying about 2,500 NuvaRing users, adverse events were reported by 5 to 14 percent of the women, with weight gain being one of the most commonly reported adverse events, along with:

• vaginitis
• upper respiratory tract infection
• sinusitis, and
• nausea

The NuvaRing and Vulvar Vestibulitis

Another very problematic disorder that has been linked to the NuvaRing is vulvar vestibulitis, a disease caused by severe irritation of the vestibular glands of the vulva. The symptoms and signs of vulvar vestibulitis are:

• redness at the vestibule (the entrance to the vagina)
• irritation, burning, stinging, or raw sensation within the vestibular area
• severe pain with pressure (e.g., from tampon use, sexual intercourse, bike riding)
• the urge to urinate suddenly or frequently

The Mechanism behind NuvaRing Weight Gain

It is possible that some women experience NuvaRing weight gain side effects because of the hormonal effects of this contraceptive. The NuvaRing is a "combination" hormonal contraceptive, releasing both a progestin and a form of estrogen into the wearer's bloodstream.

Although these hormones are intended to prevent the maturation of eggs that could become the basis for a pregnancy, they may also cause some women to gain weight. Conversely, other women with different hormonal profiles (or other factors) may experience weight loss when they use a NuvaRing.
