Health care providers used to recommend the first Sunday after your period, but no longer do. It makes sense to start the first Nuva Ring when you get it, and then use a back up method of Birth Control, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, for the first seven days of that first cycle.
Starting it in this manner reduces the risk of unintended pregnancy while waiting for your period, since you'll get protection sooner. In addition, starting on some other day of the week, not the one where almost all health care practices and many pharmacies are closed, helps reduce your risk of accidentally getting caught without a ring on your ring change day.

You can start the Nuva Ring anytime during your cycle. Use a back up method of birth control, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, until you've used it correctly for seven days.

If you wait until day two - thru day five you will need back up birth control for 7 days. This is usually the deciding factor.

In the first cycle of Nuva Ring, you can put the ring on the first day of your period for immediate protection from pregnancy. You can put it in any other day of your cycle as well, but then need to use a back up method (like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex) for seven days.

No, you can't insert NuvaRing too far. The vagina ends in a "dead end" -- it's even called the "cul de sac." NuvaRing can't "get lost" in the vagina. NuvaRing will work no matter where it's place in the vagina, but most women find it more comfortable to insert it high into the vagina near the cervix.
