Q: 

Pregnant after nuvaring in too long?

My last period was May 25, 2014. On May 29, I had my Implanon removed due to major weight gain and mood swings. I'm considering a hysterectomy due to heavy periods returning one year after endometrial ablation. As a temporary birth control I was given the nuvaring. I inserted it on June 1, 2014. I totally forgot about it and left it in for 7 weeks. I have had it out for the past three weeks but no period. I had cramps during the weeks that my period was supposed to in both June and July, but AF didn't happen. I have taken three HPT, but they've all been negative.

I'm afraid of the dangers of getting pregnant after an endometrial ablation. I have been having inexplicable headaches, nausea and heartburn after meals, and taking long naps midday (something I never do). Please help!
