Another nuraring question
| Tue, 08-31-2004 - 10:42am |
I am going to Dr on friday and i am gonna try the nuvaring with Dr's approval. My question is do I have to wait until my next period to start it like BCP's or can i start it right away?

If you are not on hormonal contraceptives now then the same rules apply when starting the ring that apply to oral contraceptives. But in addition, with the patch and ring the manufacturer recommends using back-up for the first week regardless of when you start. If you are new to hormonal contraceptives you might want to read the post "How to take your pills correctly" in the FAQs at the top of the board. Let us know how you like NuvaRing, ok?
Good luck,
