Yes. NuvaRing is removed one week per month. This is the week you have your period. You remove the last one, and later put in the new one, based on the schedule on the calendar. Sometimes this means you'll be inserting a new one while you're still bleeding.

If you use NuvaRing correctly, you are protected when bleeding and when not bleeding. If you have the NuvaRing in for the previous three week, you are protected during the ring-free week as well.

It's normal to have Nuva Ring in during at least some days of vaginal bleeding. So, what will happen is you will reduce your risk of pregnancy. You can still use a tampon or pad, according to your preference, without needing to remove the ring. Remove the ring according to the schedule, and put in a new one according to schedule, regardless of bleeding.

If you start NuvaRing between periods, it will be effective after it's been in for seven days. Use a backup method, or abstain from vaginal sex, until that seven days is up.

Can I take nuvaring out early to have my period?

Yes, but if you're doing so just to prove you're not pregnant, reconsider. Just take a pregnancy test instead, and continue using the NuvaRing on schedule. If you're trying to change the date of your period, just use the NuvaRing without taking the week-long break, rather than stopping the NuvaRing early and putting yourself at risk of pregnancy. Contact your health care provider for advice specific to your situation. If you want to stop NuvaRing, it's fine to remove it early. There's no other reason that I can think of in which removing NuvaRing early makes sense.


Do you need to use a second form of birth control when you have your period but the NuvaRing is in at this time?

You have the same protection from NuvaRing with or without bleeding. Using a second method can increase protection, but it's not required just because you're bleeding.
