vaginapaginaAs a bit of an update from here. The update, though, is really only tangentially related to the actual question.
So, I'm T+24 hours with my first Nuva Ring, and no vomiting. This is an HBC first for me.
What I did notice, just a few minutes ago, is that my vaginal taste has changed. While it is usually... um, of a robust flavor... now it is decidedly tart or sour.
The fluid has not changed in color or consistency, nor am I experiencing any itching, buring, or pain. I'm 99.5% certain that it's not a yeast infection or infection of another kind. The key element to the change seems to be the ring.
It's not a complaint, really, since I"m not sexually active at the moment and since receiving oral sex is not a huge part of my sex life. Just wondering whether this has happened to anyone else and if so, whether it's changed over time.
Thanks!

Date: 2006-05-23 02:12 am (UTC)Sorry if I'm prying, but I'm asking because all my research -- PP of Southeastern PA (http://www.ppsp.org/askbeth.asp?show_section=display_q_a&qaID=376) and Columbia University's Go Ask Alice! (http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu/2540.html), as well as a conversation with my NP -- state that oral sex while on the Nuva Ring is just fine since the giver only comes into contact with small amounts of hormones.
