Anyone use NuvaRing while breastfeeding?
Have you talked to your doctor? I was just prescribed the Nuvaring and was told that you cannot use it while breastfeeding.

My OB told me to not even take the mini pill until 3 months. That one has little or no hormones in it and they said it could cause the supply to drop. I was told also that I would have to wait till about 6 months to actually take anything different. Myself, I would not risk the loss of milk, what you are making is what your baby needs. Breast milk is about supply and demand.
i had a friend who was on the ring from 6 weeks post -baby.. it didnt harm her supply... that being said.. i was on the ring for maybe 3 months... it made me miserable... headaches... nausea/vomiting... mood swings...and the odd part was that my vagina actually hurt... pretty much went into "psycho *****" mode...
