If you miss the first three days of your NuvaRing cycle, you should use a backup method until you've worn the ring for seven days. If you had sex during that time, consider using emergency contraception.

What if NuvaRing is out for four hours?

If NuvaRing is out for less than three hours, there's no worries about effectiveness. Just rinse it in lukewarm water and reinsert.


When can you breastfeed after removing NuvaRing?

You can breastfeed with or without NuvaRing in. If you are relying on NuvaRing for pregnancy prevention, taking it out to breastfeed is going to increase your risk for pregnancy. If you're breastfeeding while using NuvaRing, removing it for a few hours does nothing to improve your milk supply, but does make it less effective. Please contact your health care provider, pharmacist, or lactation consultant to discuss NuvaRing and breastfeeding, as it seems there has been some misunderstanding. NuvaRing may decrease milk volume, which could be important with a newborn. It does not affect the quality of the milk.

Can you put NuvaRing whenever or it has to be during or a few days after your mestrual cycle?

If you are putting nuvaring in for the first time, you have to put it in between the 2nd and the 5th day of your period. Then you 'wear' it for 3 weeks exactly (as in same time in the day), take it out and let 7 days (again, on the hours exactly 7 days) pass before you put in a new one. When you use the first time, you are not protected for the first week the ring is in.


What if you accidentally left the NuvaRing in for 2 months?

Remove the NuvaRing, replace it with a new one, get a pregnancy test if you've had intercourse during the previous four weeks, consider emergency contraception if you've had intercourse in the prior 72 hours, and consult your health care provider.


You left NuvaRing out for 10 hours after only being on it 1 week according to REGULAR cycle you should be ovulating now did the horomones protect or could you get pregnant?

Since you left your NuvaRing out for 10 hours, you could get pregnant. Consider changing to a method that doesn't depend on your doing something daily, weekly, or monthly. The implant and the IUD are not dependent on correct use, and will give you better protection.


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.

Started NuvaRing day period started took it out right on time got period 5th day only lasted for a few hours then stopped and hasn't started again Still have cramping pains and bloating. Reason?

Any amount of bleeding or spotting counts as a withdrawal bleed when you're on hormonal contraception. Cramping and bloating may still occur, but bleeding will be lighter. Cramping and bloating should also decrease over the first three months of NuvaRing use. Cramping and bloating could also be signs of infection, so talk with your health care provider about whether an exam is needed in your case.


Does chantix affect NuvaRing?

Yes. You can't rely on Nuva Ring for contraception when using Topamax. Start using a back up method of birth control until you've found a new method. Consider using emergency contraception if you've had sex in the last 120 hours.
