Q: Nuvaring & possible pregnancy
asked by: MM23 on November 23rd, 2008

I put NuvaRing in a day late and after that have had unprotected sex, since then I've been having signs of pregnancy for about a week so far, should I take NuvaRing out early just in case?

How long ago was that?

If you've been having pregnancy symptoms then you should be good to take a pregnancy test

Could I possibly get a wrong reading from a pregnancy test if the nuvaring is still in?

No, it doesn't affect the test.

Pregnancy tests test for a horomone only associated with pregnancy.

How long ago did this happen?

I was supposed to put it in on the nov. 9th and I forgot about it until the 10th. If I do leave it in for another week and I do happen to be pregnant will it cause any problems?

If you take it out, just remember that you need to use some other form of birth control.

I mean obviously if you know you are pregnant then you are advised to stop taking your birth control, but it won't harm the baby from now and a positive test result.
