    Default Nuva Ring/sex question

    How long do you have to be on Nuva Ring to not have to use other birth control methods along with it? My bf and I don't want to get pregnant obviously, but want to make sure that the Nuva Ring will be strong enough on its own before we stop using condoms too. Anyone know how long is the recommended time to wait?

    Most contraceptives are 2 weeks. I had the Nuva Ring. I hated it. I hope you have luck with it. It kept slipping out of place and was uncomfortable. But I think its because my cervix is kinda funny.

    When I had this thing me guy and I were going at it. I was on a oversized chair and he was on his knees just going at it. He pulls out and the damn thing is on his dick. I swear to God. It was the funniest shit. He made a funny look then took it off and handed it to me.

    Well I know all birth control methods aren't 100%. I would say listen to your body especially if you're having all kinds of break through bleeding.

    I have a short pocket so every time I had sex he could feel it in me. Very unfun feeling for both of us. Then if I took it out to have sex (yes, we still used condoms) I would get my period within 4 hours.

    If you start it during the first few days of your period, it'll be effective immediately. Otherwise, wait 6 weeks.

    I use the nuva ring right now. I was on antibiotics for two weeks, and the gynecologist told me to wait for 5 days after getting off the antibiotics before having raw vaginal intercourse. So I guess 5 days. She told me that if it was the pill I would have to wait for a month, but with the nuva ring or with the Mirena IUD (which I will be getting later), you only have to wait for 5-7 days.

    It's as strong as bc pills. As for problems with sex I just took mine out. Doc said you can leave it out for up to two hours a day since the hormone consistantly in your bloodstream.

    Anyhow, it's fully strong enough to work by itself. All it does is let your bosy absorb the hormone through the lining of your vagina as opposed to your stomache (pill) or you skin (patch).

    Also as an odd side note. I found out while I was on it that you can actually insert the PILL into your vagina instead of swalloing it (yes my doc told me this. Long story short I had the flu and couldn't keep anything down) it absorbs the hormone right through the vaginal walls.

    I was told a week was safe, like with the Pill, the pill doesn't start working from day 1.

    Lots of conflicting responses. Hmm...If my gyno has me in (to look at the cyst I've got) within the next few weeks, I'll ask him this question. I'll post what his answer is, if anyone is still interested.

    ^^^The answer should be on the info sheet that came with the ring.

    You can take it out for up to 3 hoursYou need a back up method for 7 days. I was wrong. If its out longer than 3 hours you need back up method for another 7 days.

    Yeah, the being able to have it out thing is good. Though it's still really alarming if you're really down & dirty and then afterwards you realize it fell out and is being attacked by the cat or something!!!

    I'll note I had trouble starting the ring... the first time I tried it I gave up after three weeks because it was irritating my skin. After a few months I tried it again and it's been my only BC choice for about four years now. The initial adjustment was rough, though.
