light bleeding on Nuvaring Posted: 01-26-08 01:15am
I started the nuvaring on the first day of
my period, like it said to, and the second
day I got my period for a little during
the day and it has stopped now. I'm on the
fourth day and I still haven't had my
period but a little[like littlelittle] bit
of milky blood.
Is that normal?
and when I was at the gyno I told her I
couldn't keep it in the fridge and she
said to just keep it in a dark cold place
where sun wont get to it and it will stay
dry.
whats the reason for keeping it in the
fridge?

The ring takes over your system so that's
why your period went away.
The hormones in nuvaring decay in warm
temperatures - like in your body. Because
of this, it is best to keep it in a cool
place. Just like bread is totally fine on
your counter but lasts even longer in the
fridge, nuvaring is just fine in a dark,
cool place. Pharmacies just keep it in
fridges so it lasts longer.
