Okay. First question.
How long does this irregular bleeding
last? I've been on the nuvaring for
coming up on 3 weeks now, and it's as if
i've been on my period the entire time.
It's starting to get irritating.
Due to the irregular bleeding and other
factors, such as cost, i'm thinking about
quitting nuvaring, period, and waiting to
begin birth control for a few months (i am
currently not sexually active, my
significant other just moved back to
school). Anyways, I wonder how this will
effect my cycle. According to the
nuvaring literature, I should be taking it
out at the end of this week to have my
"cycle" anyways, but then putting in a new
nuvaring.
One question I had about that was...
Would the irregular bleeding lessen after
my first "cycle" on the ring?
My other question is, if I take the ring
out and leave it out after the 3rd week of
use, like the booklet says... I will have
a "cycle" resulting from taking out the
nuvaring and the lack of hormones in my
body, right? So I should be expecting my
next
real period at the end of next
week, and if I removed the nuvaring, will
I experience that regular period then,
too?
Heh, I know i'm full of questions, but
these are things I never had a chance to
ask my doctor!
luck!
