NuvaRing and Period

I just finished up my second month on NuvaRing. So far I absolutely love it.
First month I started on a Wednesday and three weeks later removed it on a Wednesday (3/10). I also used a back up method (condom) during that time. I stared my period on that Friday, had unprotected sex on that Saturday, and inserted a new ring on that Sunday.
(Ring insertion and removal dates were all per my doctor)
For the second month I used a back up method (condom) again and removed the ring three weeks later on Saturday (4/3). I also had unprotected sex on Saturday.
It is now Wednesday, and I still have not received my period.
I know a lot of things can cause a delay, but I have always started two days after my last dose of BC. It has now been four.
Anyone think I should have reason for concern?
Thanks!

Period start days move around when beginning a hormonal method. Typically AF appears between the 2nd and 5th day of your hormone free week but she could arrive earlier or later and move around during your first few cycles on a particular set of hormones. I don’t think you have any need to worry. You should be quite safe. Let us know when AF arrives, ok?
Good luck

Woo hoo!
