Pills are pretty effective (about 97-98%) if correctly used. If you start next package of pills late, the effectiveness will be changed.

There are 3 methods how to start pills correctly :

  1. from first day of period
  2. from closest Sunday
  3. from day five.

What happens when NuvaRing is placed in hot water for a long period of time?

Placing NuvaRing in hot water for an extended period can compromise its effectiveness as a contraceptive. The heat may cause the ring to lose its shape or release the hormones contained within it too quickly, potentially leading to inadequate contraceptive protection. It’s important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and avoid exposing the ring to extreme temperatures. If the ring is accidentally exposed to hot water, it's advisable to use an alternative contraceptive method and consult a healthcare provider.

What happens when Emergency contraceptive pill is used in the case of uncertain failure of contraceptive?

It will be very effective if taken within the first 48 hours of intercourse. You may experience side effects such as break through bleeding, or a change to your menstrual cycle and abdominal cramping, but not everyone experiences these common side effects and it does not indicate whether the medication has been successful or not. I would recommend that you perform a pregnancy test 2-3 weeks after taking the emergency contraceptive and the result will be accurate.
