Q: Nuvaring And Delayed Period?

asked by: mitbee on January 4th, 2007

Hello everyone,
I am on the nuvaring and I was out of town and completely forgot to take out my ring on time. I took it out 2 days late, which means it was in me for a total of 23 days. Could that be the cause of my late period? I am 3 days late.

It could very well be yes.. There was still active hormones in it..
The nuva ring is actually effective for 32 days, so you did not lose protection, but this would delay your period.
