Traveling- Nuvaring storage?

Hi everyone!

I had a question about Nuvaring. I will be going to Florida in August and will be flying. Every vacation I took in the past while on the Pill, I have always brought along an extra set. Do you think its necessary to bring along an extra ring? I'll be on my last week. I'm afraid of not being able to store it properly on the way there/back so would really like to not bring one. Has anyone has any problems not bringing extra?

if you are forshure going to be back before its time to put in your next ring than i wouldnt worry about taking an extra. but if your not going to be back before its time to put in your next ring than i would travel with mine in my puse it would be at a more constant temp in your purse than it would be in your checked luggage because under the plane is not air conditioned. if your driving id still keep it in my purse because when you stop off to eat etc your gonna take your purse in side with you that way it wouldnt be left in a too hot car. did that make since its what i would do.

I've traveled quite a bit with Nuvaring and never brought an extra.

I haven't had mine long, but I have traveled a couple times and didn't take an extra ring with me. The only time I would was if I knew I wouldn't be back before I was supposed to start a new ring. HTH! :)
