If you leave NuvaRing in for six weeks without changing it, you could get pregnant. Insert the new one now. If you had sex in the last five days, consider using the morning after pill or getting a copper IUD inserted (the latter reduces the risk of pregnancy up to five days after sex, and provides ongoing Birth Control that's highly reliable and reversible). Use a backup method of birth control until you've used the ring correctly for seven days. Take a pregnancy test if you don't have bleeding when you next take your ring-free week break.

∙ 12y agoThe nuva ring should be left in place for only and exactly three weeks at a time (although there is 4 weeks of medication in it). If you leave it in for more than 4 weeks you should take it out and take a pregnancy test. Leaving a ring in for more than 4 weeks increases your chance of being pregnant. If you are not pregnant and want to continue using the nuva ring, you should insert a new ring as soon as possible and mark it on your calendar so you can take it out in exactly three weeks. (If you do not use a calendar, setting an alarm in the calendar of your phone may help you remember to take it out).
