thank you for the answer!

Hi! So I've been on the nuvaring for a month now. I am supposed to insert my second nuvaring tomorrow but I will be busy at the tim I should insert it. Is my protection compromised if I insert it a few hours before?

Hi! I don't think I expressed my self correctly. I am not second guessing my doctor at all. I am certainly using back up during the time that she advised me to. I just wasn't sure if I understood the instructions. She told me to use back up during my first cycle. I was wondering if that meant that t...

Hi! So I've decided to change my birth control method from the pill to the Nuvaring. My doctor told me that during the first month I wouldn't be fully protected against pregnancy. My question is, am I protected as soon as I start using a second ring or should I wait 7 days during that second month i...

My boyfriend and I always use condoms. But I am very concerned about pregnancy so we are on a break from sex until I can deal with it. This break certainly will last till the end of this pack of pills. When we start again I want to make sure I am as comfortable and secure as possible. Thank you so m...

Hi! I have a question on the pill. If you take any of the medications that interfere with it for how long do you need back up? I took only one pill of this medication my doctor prescribed before realizing it affected my pill. I talked to him and we found another option so I stopped taking that medic...

Oh ok! I don't think that was the case. I had pains in my abdomen all day but I only felt like going to the bathroom at night. And I take my pill in the morning. Thanks for the help. This website is awesome.

It certainly does! Thank you so much for the help! It's such a stressful situation. A lot of the time I feel I need to justify things like that and your advice on that really helped. I will talk to him next time I see him. He has been really comprehensive on other matters which I've struggled with. ...

Hi! So, on the last few months I've been on what seems to be a continuing pregnancy scare. Because of that I decided to stop having vaginal sex until I felt more ready. However I have recently found myself worrying even about things that are not supposed to present a pregnancy risk. On Friday I had ...

Ok! Thank you so much!

Hi! So I finished the active pills on my package right before a big trip. Because of the time changes I didn't take any of the inactive pills of the package. However I started a new package at the usual time so I didn't take a longer brake than it was directed. Is there a problem if I don't take the...

I think the pill works well for me. But I will give it a look. Thank you so much!

Well, I am on the pill as well witch does make me feel more comfortable. I have read many places that it's normal to sometimes not get your period when taking the pill. Usually I bleed for four days but I have also had a couple of times in which I had nothing more than a little brown discharge for l...

hi! I take a birth control pill that has a 4 yellow pills in each package. Usually my withdrawal bleed comes at the second day of the yellow pills. However this month it did not come and I took a pregnancy test the following day. That was 3 weeks after the last time me and my boyfriend had sex ( we ...

Oh so if I take a pill from that pack tomorrow and than continue to take my pills as usual I should be fine? (I will still be using condoms. Me and my boyfriend always do)

All right, thank you! I do have an extra pack I keep in case I need it... I'll try writing my doctor an e-mail to see what I can do.

Hi! I am on the pill for 5 months now. Today I forgot I had already taken the pill and I took another one. Is there a problem with taking two pill in one day? Will that affect the effectiveness of the pill?

Hi! I had sex with my boyfriend two days ago. Now I am experiencing a brown bleeding. I am on the pill and he were condoms. What can that be?
