Nuvaring question

I took out my last nuvaring on a tuesday instead of on sunday. So I left it in 2 extra days. I put in the new nuvaring the following tuesday (June 1st). Does this mean I take it out tomorrow (tuesday) or should I have taken it out yesterday? Or do I take it out next sunday to go back to regular schedule? I've already started brownish discharge. Sorry TMI!

Thanks in Advance,

You could do it either way you prefer. Nuvarings website says that you can leave your ring in for up to 4 weeks without using a backup birth control. So if you want to go back to a Sunday schedule, you can leave it in until next Sunday. If you are happy with the Tuesday schedule, take it out tomorrow. Either way you will be fine.
