You might be surprised.... I had my yearly a few months ago and my doc gave me 4 rings for free. They get them free from the drug company, so it's not like it costs them. I don't think it would hurt to call around, and see if there is a doc who would give you samples and a legit Rx for more. I ended up not liking it at all though so I tossed my extras.. but I didn't feel all that bad about it because I didn't pay for them and I know my doc didn't either.

I would not EVER trust the internet for any kind of Rx drug.. especially if you're considering shopping out of the country. Yeah, it could be cheaper, but if you can't afford a doctor's appointment or paying the regular Rx cost now, what's going to happen if you get fake rings and end up pregnant? Not worth it IMO.

If you are on it for contraception and not some other female issue, I don't think there is *anything* wrong with asking your partner to help with the costs... so that's something to consider as well.

Walmart offers several BCP options on their $4 plan, with no membership fee or anything.. if you'd consider going back to a pill from the ring.
