has anyone gotten pregnant on nuva ring?

by firstbaby07, Oct 12, 2007 08:20AM
My daughter is 6 weeks old. My doctor put me on the nuva ring (she didnt want me on the pill, since I got pregnant with my daughter and a miscarriage on it, even though I took it at the same time everyday) Is it normal to have some cramping with the ring? Has anyone gotten pregnant on the ring? Since my daughter is so young I havent had a period yet and I dont take the ring out for 2 more weeks.

I tried the nuva ring for literally 10 minutes and I hated it.  It felt uncomfortable.  Anyway, is it possible its to high? You can take it out and reinsert it so that it's more comfortable.  Maybe it'll make your cramps stop.

I just started the nuva ring a week ago.  It doesnt bother me but I've been having pregnancy like symptoms./  I assume it's my body's hormones adjusting... I gave birth 7 weeks ago...
I also havent had a period yet.  I don't think it's likely to get pregnant on the ring... I agree with newbie that you could try reinserting it.  i had to do that a couple of times before I found a comfortable way to wear it.

I'm also on the nuva ring.My baby is 11 wks.No problem.This is my 2nd month.Before I got pregnant with Juliana I was using the nuva ring for 2 YRS! Never had a problem.It is uncomfortable if not inserted correctly & there are some symptoms for the first month.My body is used to it already & I love it.Been on the pill,depo,EVERYTHING & this is the one I'm sticking with..lol.

I also had pregnancy symptoms like nausea,headaches & cramping.But all normal.I would not suggest taking it out for more than 3 hrs.And it being 'to high' has nothing to do with the cramping.Hope you feel better.

you are putting it in for 3 weeks and taking it out on the 4th week...right? just checking. I was on it for 3 months and stopped because my husband was getting a vasectomy. I never had any problems at all. You may want to check with your dr. That maybe shouldn't be happening and you may need a new form of birth control.

If your having problems inserting the ring use a tampon abdicator it goes in perfect every time .

I got pregnant on the nuva ring. I had a miscarriage and went on the ring 2 weeks after the MC. 7 weeks after the MC I found out I was pregnant again. I also have become pregnant on BC as well and the day after pill.
