Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.
Because it has been more than 3 hours that your NuvaRing has been out, the contraceptive effectiveness is compromised. If you do decide to engage in sexual activity, be sure to use a back up birth control method like a condom.
You should definitely reinsert it or put in another NuvaRing.
You can always check online with the manufacturer's website or search here on the topic for more information.
