So I've been taking Nuvaring for well over
a year now; I usually take it out on the
last day of the month, and can expect my
period on the 3rd or 4th of the next.
Two days ago while having sex with my
fiance, it was pulled a 1/4 of the way out
(just BARELY poking out), I'm not sure how
but, I didn't notice, and it remained like
this for about 6 hours (while sleeping).
Come morning being that it seemed more out
of place then actually OUT, I just
readjusted it; thinking nothing of it
really.
Well, its obviously not the end of the
month little lone the 3rd or 4th of the
next and I woke up this morning to
bleeding!! Similar to that of what its
like when Im usually starting my cycle.
So the question is...Could I be pregnant
and this is the spotting (just unusually
heavy for I've been informed as spotting)?
If the Nuvaring was out far enough to not
do its job, it still should have taken 3
or 4 days to get my cycle, as per usual.
Whats going on?!
P.s.(I've also been taking Fiorinal C 1/2
for the last two weeks approx. but stopped
over 72 hours ago)

You are not pregnant 2 days after sex,
just to clarify.
It takes 14 days after sex to even be
pregnant, as that is when the egg implants
into the uterus. BEFORE this time you have
fertilization and movement of the egg
closer to sperm.
You would NOT be pregnant. The bleeding
can be because the Fiorinal contains
aspirin, which does thin the blood.
The nuva ring was not completely outside
of your body, so the hormones were still
there.
It may be a FLUKE, many women will have
unusual bleeding at some time during birth
control use... It happens to almost
everyone.
