Hi I was on nuvaring for about 2 weeks and my boyfriend and i decided i should take it out early due to the awful side effects i was having (around the 24th). we had unprotected sex about 3 or 4 days after (on the 28th) i took it out and i havent had a period yet (i was supposed to take the ring out about a week and and a half ago and on my normal 28 day cycle, which has always been very accurate, i was due the 10th. by looking at my normal cycle i would have been due to ovulate between the 24th and the 26th. is it possible that stopping nuvaring early let me ovulate just a little late? Ive been having cramps and bloating like i would when i get my period but im not bleeding. Also my breasts are sore and seem larger. Is it possible that i could be pregnant?
Thanks for any answers

On Nuva Ring. Normal Period is always 9th/10th of month. In September I had my normal period. Then on September 28th, i started bleeding again. Every now and then on the Nuva Ring I will bleed randomly so I didnt give it too much thought......then I went to take it out on Oct 6th, and it wasnt there.....so that would mean I had to lose it around Sept 26th ish....all the while My husband and I have unprotected sex.....Would this mean we have a high possibilty of pregnancy?....When should I out a new one in, or should I wait for my cycle to come back around on its own?

Hi-I was on Nuva ring for 2 cycles. Normally would have my period the 9th/10th of month. I was bothered by the ring so I took it out on the 26th of the month. I did have a period when I took it out, the period started on the 28th and lasted 4 or 5 days. Now I have been feeling nauseated and tired. Is there a chance I could have ovulated and got pregnant? Or would I have to be off the ring for an entire cycle?

Well i was on it for 2 months and i just stopped using it. me and my husband want to have another kid. At the last period i didn't put a new one back in and was wondering what the % of being pregnant this month is? i used the dollar store one just because i didnt have enough money on me at that time. they both said that it was neg. I took the ring out March 20th 2010 and started on the 23 of March. now It's april19th and nothing. from my period in feb to the period in march that was about 26 days and i took a test on 18 and 19th of april and both said no. does ne one know how well they work? I have heard lots of yes they work and alot of no they dont work. If someone could shed some light on my situation that wuld be great.

Anon,
All pregnancy tests work the same way, by detecting amounts of the pregnancy hormone (HCG) in your urine. If it's there in high enough quantities, the dollar store type of pregnancy test will work just fine. From what you say, it sounds like your body may be a little off now that it adjusts to not having the NuvaRing in. It's very common for our bodies to react to starting and stopping hormones with an irregular cycle or two.
It's been a few days since you wrote, have you gotten your period yet?
