I was off my nuvaring for twelve days due to a pharmacy mix up with my presciption.
I inserted my ring on the thirteenth day and all went smooth. the thing is that it's day twenty four and no period!!! I took two pregnancy test and they are both negative(since me and hubby were intimate on what was supposed to be day one of ring). Could I have thrown my system out of wack? Any help greatly appreciated.

i wouldn't worry about it. i did that to myself often on the pill (3 consec. years)

you're supposed to get your period and all like clock-work, but if you mess up, or take it too late one day, yada yada...

no biggie. you can call your doc and/or pharmacy if you're worried about it. i would give it a week or so (condoms if you'd like) while things readjust.

If you inserted your ring on day 13 and it's day 24, that's only 11 days.
