Birth Control question (Nuva Ring)

If you miss the date that you are supposed to put your new nuva ring in and put it in late does it effect the effectiveness of the birth control?

I was told it is like missing a bc pill. Put it back in as soon as possible. Like with the pill take as soon as you can after being forgotten .

Yes it affects the effectiveness of the nuva ring. I was on it for a year and after I got married this summer I forgot to put it back in so I put in it the next day. I am now pregnant. Definately use backup birthcontrol.
