Best Answer

If you start mid-cycle, you should use a back up method of birth control, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, until you've had it in for seven days, at which time you'll get full protection. Effectiveness -- if 1,000 couples use Nuva Ring perfectly for a year, three will get pregnant. Since there are no perfect couples, pregnancy rates with typical use are higher than that, but there are no good data to date on typical failure rates with Nuva Ring. It's probably lower than typical failure rates with the pill, for which 8 pregnancies can occur among 100 couples using the pill for a year (higher for teens).
