nuva ring

by greatthings, Jan 22, 2009 07:27PM

I put my nuva ring in a day late: I was supposed to start Wednesday morning and I started Thursday afternoon. I had unprotected sex Wednesday night. I took Plan B Thursday afternoon.

How long do I need to use condoms before I can be sure I'm not getting pregnant?

ok, I guess what I meant to aks is, how long do I need to use condoms before the NuvaRing is working at its normal effectiveness once more?

birth control takes up to a month or more to start working. you can still get prengant you know even after that month or two
