Took out nuva ring
| Wed, 12-27-2006 - 2:04pm |
I took out my nuva ring on sat. after having it in for almost a week. I decided to take it out because my bf and I broke up. Well last night we saw each other and had sex. Well this morning I think I started my period. is this whats suppose to happen even though I had my period 1 week and half ago.

Hi cnk2006, welcome back!

Hi cnk2006,
Yes, bleeding again so soon after stopping a birth control method can happen - you had the nuvaring in for a week, so the hormones built up, and now you're having another withdrawal bleed. I'm more concerned about whether or not you used protection when you had sex. If you didn't, then you should get the ECP, as you will not be protected against pregnancy.
Just because you had bleeding, in this situation, doesn't necessarily mean that you're safe from pregnancy if the timing were just right.
Without being graphic, there maybe something that was different in your experience with your (ex) boyfriend. Hope all works out for the best.
