Skipping your period with NuvaRing does not increase the risk of pregnancy. Using hormonal Birth Control with a shorter or absent break may actually lower the risk of pregnancy.

What are the risks when intentionally skipping your period on the pill?
The only risk of skipping your period using the birth control pill is unscheduled bleeding. Skipping does not have any medical risks, and it does not increase the risk of pregnancy.
I left my old NuvaRing in about 3 days too long and then put a new NuvaRing in to skip my period this month.. Is that okay?
It's fine to start the next ring early, and fine to leave the old ring in for 24 days. Doing so does not increase the risk of pregnancy. You may have unpredictable bleeding when trying to skip your period by skipping the ring-free interval.
What are warning signs of a miscarriage on the nuvaring?
The signs of pregnancy on NuvaRing are positive pregnancy test and missed periods. Take a pregnancy test if you think you might be pregnant.
Is skipping your period on the pill bad?
Skipping your period on the birth control pill, whether it happens with normal use or because you skipped the placebo week on purpose, isn't bad. It doesn't increase the risk of pregnancy, and causes no damage.
You are spotting and im on the NuvaRing could you be pregnant or have an std?
Spotting could represent a side effect of NuvaRing or an STD. If your'e at risk for STDs, get tested. Signs of pregnancy are missing period and positive pregnancy test.
Can you get pregnant from skipping your period using Birth Control?
Skipping your period by taking extra birth control pills or fewer placebo (sugar) pills lowers, not raises, your risk of pregnancy.
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.
If you are on a 6 week cycle instead of a 3 week is there more of a chance of becoming pregnant if this is the first time you have used the pill to skip a period?
Skipping a period by taking two cycles back to back does not increase the risk of pregnancy. If anything, it decreases the risk.
Can stopping NuvaRing cause breast tenderness?
Some women may have breast tenderness with ovulation after stopping NuvaRing. It's just a matter of your body going back to its regular cycle. Breast tenderness can also be a sign of pregnancy, so take a pregnancy test if you miss your period.
Had mirena removed started NuvaRing where's my period?
It's not surprising that you would have a very light period, even to the point of seeing no bleeding, after changing from Mirena to NuvaRing. Any hormonal birth control lightens withdrawal bleeding and may cause a missed period. If you're worried about pregnancy, take a test.
You got your period Saturday you were done by Sunday you didn't insert a NuvaRing until Tuesday day 4 you weren't on your period anymore will you be protected against pregnancy after the 7 days?
If you inserted your first NuvaRing within the first five days of your period, you have immediate protection even if you weren't still bleeding when you inserted it.
NuvaRing why are you protected instantly if you insert on day 1 or your period opposed to day 2-5?
If you start using NuvaRing on day one of your period, you will be instantly protected because you are not ovulating. If you wait until days 2 - 5, you could not be protected if you have already started to ovulate.
