Nuvaring and condoms
Common Questions and Answers about Nuvaring and condoms
nuvaring
I am also allergic to latex and tried the NuvaRing and had quite a severe latex allergic reaction to it. I ripped my Gyno a new one after that happened. I understand that it's technically latex-free, but it contains the same main ingredient as latex (which is what caused the reaction) and I feel that needs to be mentioned on the box at least.
ive been on the ring for six months and i take mine out on monday and seven days later i put it in on monday also wen i take it out on monday my period usually comes friday and last until sunday nite and this week it didnt i used condoms and had the ring in i dnt know wats goin on shuld i b worried i never missed a period wen i was on the ring before shuld i still put the ring back in without having had my period
Throw the ring away and choose 1 of the 2 options below:
1. Insert a new ring immediately. This begins the next 3-week use period. You may not have a period but you may experience breakthrough spotting or bleeding.
2. Have your period and insert a new ring no later than 7 days from the time the previous ring was removed or expelled. This option should be chosen only if the ring was used continuously for the preceding 7 days.
I've been on Nuvaring for 5-6 months now and I've skipped my period for 2 months now but I keep on spotting so I want to have a ring free week where i'll have my period, now that I want to have my period, will I still be protected from pregnancy for my ring free week even though I've been using the nuvaring continuiously to skip my period?
It is possible, yes. With NuvaRing, you need to use condoms for a month for it to be fully effective. However, you are definitely playing with fire. It makes no difference if you ovulate a few days later, as sperm last 5 days on average in the female body and 7 in perfect conditions. While calenders are helpful, they are by no means exact. It's safer to assume there is no safe time. You need to wait 2 weeks and take a pregnancy test with first morning urine.
I took the pill Sunday and Monday. However Monday night I had unprotected sex and he came inside of me. This was the day after my 3 week period ended. My questions are A. Because of my long period when would I have been ovulating? And B. Am I pregnant? C. do i have to be ovulating to get pregnant I have no signs or anything but I do know it's early and because of the new birth control I really don't know when I will start my period or if it will be my actual period or spotting..
I'm nearly 51; periods are irregular, are getting lighter and further part, and I no longer get PMT. I've also learned recently that I have a severe bicornuate uterus. I've recently started a new relationship; he has trouble with condoms, I don't want to take the pill (causes continual bleeding for me), I don't want a coil because of the uterine abnormality and my GP has told me that my chances of getting pregnant are very slim.
birth controls not 100%
LEGALLY your mother can't force you to get the shot. IT can make you gain weight, I put 50+ lbs on with it.
Personally I'd suggest the Nuvaring if it's an option. I spent 3 months on it and LOVED It!
The reason is Nuvaring is low dose, you won't normally put weight on with it, and it's easier than a pill and you don't have to remember it every day the same time.
She told me that the oral pill would metabolize through the liver much faster on Modafinil and so she put me on the Nuvaring. (I thought that would be metabolized the same way- but I’m no doctor)! I just went to get a new Nuvaring at my pharmacy and the pharmacist told me the same thing, that Modafinil will affect my birth control. If there is an option where I am protected?
I plan on exclusively breastfeeding and getting my partner to use condoms. I actually got pregnant with this one on the pill, and I don't like the way my body reacted to the depo shot. After 9 months of pregnancy I want to give my body chance to heal and my hormones to get back to normal before I start putting fake hormones in there.
YES! It can cause diabetes! It is listed as glucose intolerance in the side effects. I went though 8 months of #@!& on nuvaring. I went to the doc because I wad exhausted all of the time, fuzzy brained, and starting to loose my hair. When I asked if it could be the birth control, my question was dismissed. They tried to put me on all of this medication for slightly elevated blood sugar. I refused. I decided to go off the nuvaring, which I was on only for acne.
If you've been having unprotected sex, then yes, you could be pregnant (you weren't ever covered by the birth control pills). It might be too early for it to show on a pregnancy test if you are pregnant. Talk to an ob/gyn or teen clinic about what to do and when you should get tested. You should also look into the patch or the nuvaring for birth control if it turns out you aren't pregnant, as you don't have to remember these as often.
On Oct. 17 I took my NuvaRing out and then I had my period Oct. 22-26 and was supposed to put the ring back in on the Oct. 24. I did not put it in until Nov. 1st, 8 days late. My husband and I had sex without condoms or any other contraceptive on Oct. 28th and Nov. 4th. My WomanLog app has my ovulation forecast on the 6th.
My Qs:
I know there is a possibility of being pregnant but I'm asking if it is a high chance?
I am gonna take a HPT but what day should I take it?
