Q: Stopping use of Nuva Ring

Hi, I stopped using the NUVA Ring about three weeks ago. Since stopping my husband and I had sex while I am certain I was ovulating. Since, I have had PMS like symptoms, bloated stomach, nausea, cramps, extreme fatigue, back ache. I think it is highly unlikely that I am pregnant, are these symptoms from stopping use of NR? I had no side effects while using NR.

It is too early to say if you are pregnant or not. PMS like symptoms could be present in the early stages of pregnancy but you can't rely on them. You should perform a pregnancy test if you expected period doesn't come.
