1) I was never on HBC before and have always had nice skin. The nuva ring made my complexion a little worse for a while and after about 2 months or so it went back to normal.
2) I would just try to leave it in during sex. Until I got really adept at putting it in*, it would usually slide out until I had sex and then sex would usually push it into place and it would stay there. When we first started using the ring my partner said he could feel it occasionally, but it wasn't distracting or anything. I experimented with a few different placements and where I put it now he says he basically can't feel it at all.
*When I insert the ring I bear down and place it behind my cervix and push it up as far as I can. Then, when I release my muscles it kind of sucks the ring up further so it stays nice and high behind my cervix.
