The ring is fine, but if you haven't had it in for three hours, you need to take extra precautions. If the Nuva Ring has been out more than three hours, rinse it in cold or lukewarm (not hot) water, reinsert it, and use a backup Birth Control method, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, for the next seven days.

It's best to leave the ring in during sex to reduce the risk of this kind of accident.

Nuva ring slipped out you had your period for 2 days and then it ended suddenly. could i be pregnant?

If the ring was out for less than three hours, you still have the normal level of protection. If more than three hours, you might consider using emergency contraception, and need to use a back up method for the next seven days. If you think you might be pregnant, check with a pregnancy test. Short bleeding is not unusual with Nuva Ring.


Can you get pregnant if i forgot to put the nuva ring back in after intercourse?

If you used Nuva Ring correctly during the previous three weeks, and are in your ring-free week, you have the same level of protection that you had in the prior three weeks. If you accidentally had the ring out for three days in the middle of your three week "ring in" time, you should use a back up method for the next seven days, and consider using emergency contraception.

Can a man come when using NuvaRing?

Yes, a man having intercourse with a woman using the nuva ring can "come". Although sometimes the man can also feel the ring, and it sometimes causes discomfort for him, or even sometimes a slight desensitization of his penis. If your partner feels discomfort, or is unable to "come", you can remove the nuva ring while you have sex. Just be sure to remember to put it back in within 3 hours of taking it out to maintain the effectiveness of the birth control.

If my nuva ring falls out and i start my period two weeks earlier then when I'm supposed to do i put another ring in right after i stop even though it's not my schedule?

If your Nuva Ring falls out, you should rinse it in cold or lukewarm water and reinsert it. If it was out for less than three hours, no backup method is needed. If it was out for more than three hours, you should use condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex. If you've lost the ring altogether, then you should insert a new ring, leaving it in for three weeks and taking it out after 21 days, on the same day of the week you put it in. What you should not do is wait until after bleeding stops to start the new ring. Just use it on schedule, according to the calendar, regardless of any bleeding.
