removing nuvaring for sex Posted: 03-25-06 00:03am
First of all, I would like to apologize
for any misinformation I have given to any
of you about nuvaring: you can only remove
it for up to three hours per month. My
college's nurse practitioner told me it
was three hours per day. Needless to say,
I am no longer going to see her!
Now for my problem. I am in a long
distance engagement. I recently went to
visit my fiance for a week from march
10-17. Sometimes the nuvaring bothers him
- it's actually a little painful I guess,
so I do remove it if he asks and reinserts
it as soon as we are finished.
However, when I returned home, my period
arrived a full day late, and it has been
very light. I did a little research and
found out that it is only three hours per
month that the ring can be out. I am 99%
sure that my ring was not removed for more
than 2 and a half hours during the week I
was with him. But I am very concerned
that I could be pregnant since it was out
for nearly three hours in less than a
week.
As I said, my period arrived late
(wednesday instead of tuesday) and has
been much lighter than usual. Could this
be a sign of pregnancy?
