I think I may be having something similar going on. About five days before I was supposed to remove my nuvaring, I was spotting light brown discharge and now that I have removed it at its right time, I seem to be having my period mixed with the brown discharge on top of a decent amount of clotting. Should I be concerned?

Hormonal birth control is elm known to cause changes in the appearance, consistency and timing of a woman's period. Therefore, you don't need to worry about it. There's nothing unusual about it.
