I have also used the NuvaRing and completely recommend it to anyone considering it. It completely cleared up my face and I had none of the side effects that I had on other pills.
I was having terrible migraines with my period and so my doctor did tell me to "skip the placebo" essentially, as FluffyBurger questioned. What I do, is put the ring in for the 3 prescribed weeks, and Instead of leaving the ring out for one week, just insert the next one. I will caution that if you don't allow yourself a period every 2-3 months, I was getting breakthrough bleeding in the middle of the month.
BTW DBF says he never feels the ring!
