My body doesn't have periods on its on
anymore...so my last period was in
December of 2006.
I went to see my doctor about this...and
she put me on the Nuvaring (which I had
used previously). I haven't used it since
October.
I did leave it in for 3 weeks and took it
out (and am now having the most HORRIBLY
PAINFUL AND HEAVY PERIOD OF MY LIFE
)...and I will insert a new ring in on
Tuesday.
Any idea on when it is effective?
The documentation that I've read is
written in conjunction of a) if you are
switching from another birth control....or
b) if you insert it on Day 1 (first day of
your period). Since I've had no period, I
just inserted it whenever.
I'm not sexually active ATM but just
wondering "just in case."
Thanks for reading.

As with most horomonal birth control, you
will be safe after one week.
