The Nuvaring

Does anyone know if and when this will become registered and available in the UK or would my GP be able to prescribe them and order them in from the US? I asked my GP about it and she had never heard of them. I would really like to give the Nuvaring a go as it seems so much easier than the pill and i am really not the most reliable person when it comes to remembering my pill.

they are available in the UK now as far as i know but i think you must buy insted of getting from your GP.

try asking at a local pharmacy or boots to see if they know of anyone who supplies.
When i read about them last time, i thought it said they were by prescription only, but i will ask my GP again when i see her and i will look around.

ok sorry just realised you cant get them in the UK yet, available in Europe and being tested in the UK, likely to be available within the next two years
boo I want to try it. I think I'll get it from my doctor here in the US before I leave for the UK in a few weeks.
