Yes. The Nuva Ring has enough hormones to last up to 35 days, or 5 weeks. Leaving it in for 4 weeks is perfectly healthy and equally as effective for preventing pregnancy. Leaving it in for 4 weeks and skipping your period is fine, but it should not be left in for more than 4 weeks at a time.

The NuvaRing regimen was designed with a week off because some women get nervous if they don't see vaginal bleeding every month. They think they might be pregnant, or they might be harming themselves. In reality, there is no medical reason to have a withdrawal bleed monthly if you're on hormonal Birth Control. If you'd like to have a shorter time period with no ring, or would like to leave it in continuously, talk with your health care provider or pharmacist about options. The easiest one is to leave the ring in place for four weeks, then remove it and insert another immediately. Some women doing so may have no periods, but may have unscheduled bleeding that they find troublesome. See what works for you.

If you left your NuvaRing in for one extra day, just replace the ring six days later.

Yes you leave it in for 3 weeks and take it out for a week for your period but you could leave it in for 4 weeks so you could miss your period

What happens if the NuvaRing is left out of body for a day?

If you leave out NuvaRing for a day, replace it with a new ring and use a back up method of birth control, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, for seven days. It is best not to remove NuvaRing until the ring-free week.


How does NuvaRing work?

NuvaRing remains effective for up to four weeks after inserting it. If you leave it in for the four weeks, though, be sure to insert the next ring at the end of the four weeks; don't take a ring-free week unless you had it in for just three weeks.

What happens if you are suppose to insert the NuvaRing at the same time every time what if you are couple hours late?

Nothing. It doesn't have to be inserted at the same time each week. My gyno told me I can leave it in an extra week if I'm going on vacation or want to hold off my period a week for some reason...there are enough hormones in it to leave it in an extra week, so the matter of a few hours is not important.


Do you have to put NuvaRing in at the same time every time?

No, you only need to insert NuvaRing on the same day of the week every time, not the same time of day.


When can you expect to have a period after you discontinue the NuvaRing on your first week of use?

Can you use NuvaRing during your period?

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.
