NuvaRing Fall & Period Delay: Possible Pregnancy or Resetting Cycle?


Question
I am 19 and was using the nuvaring and it fell out one night when my husband and I were having intercourse. It fell out on the 20th of December. I got my period on the 23rd  of december. I had a few days of very light spotting and havent had a period since. I have taken 2 pregnancy tests that have come back negative. Could I be pregnant or is my body just resetting its self? Cause i dont feel normal. If you have any ideas on what is going on that would be great. Thanks

Answer
Hi Angela,

Thanks for your question. Has anything further happened since you sent me your question? Did you get a regular period? You could be pregnant and the test just not showing up positive yet. Or it could be like you say and you are just getting adjusted to a normal cycle after nuvaring. So glad you got it out because I don't recommend it at all. Too many side effects and risks, in my opinion.

Please get a medical checkup if you feel it necessary. And also, feel free to email me privately at CHERYL51@aol.com or find someone else to talk to about all this. Also, if you ever need a free pregnancy test, you can get one at a pregnancy resource center. http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP. or http://www.heartbeatservices.org and click on the globe in the upper right hand corner of your page online.

Let me know what happens.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
