I got a dumb question about nuva ring. Is it hard to forget to change the ring when a person get their period? I'm asking b/c my friend got pregnant using the nuva ring and was just wondering how could a person forget to change the ring. I'm don't know b/c i'm taking the pill. i'm just curious if she forgot to change on purpose or not. thanks!!!

If you don't remember to take the ring out, yes, you can get pregnant from leaving it in too long--you can't expect it to work for more than four weeks.
