My Gf Just Started the Nuva Ring. How Long Should We Wait Posted: 10-19-07 17:11pm
My girlfriend just started the nuva ring 6
days ago. She told me that her Dr said
that she needs to wait 7 days before she
is protected. All the reading that I have
done says that you need to insert it
during your period and then wait 7 days.
To my knowledge she inserted it slightly
past the middle of her cycle. Will it be
ok after 7 days? Did her Dr give her wrong
advice? Should we wait until after her
upcoming period? We always use a condom
while having sex and will continue to do
so. The ring is just for an extra level of
protection.
Any help would be appreciated!

She will be safe after 7 days, it doesn't
matter when she inserted it.
