A member asked:

My period started again a week after i put in a new nuvaring. why does this happen and should i keep the nuvaring in?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Breakthrough bleed: The hormone content in the nuva ring is enough to suppress ovulation, but sometimes not enough to prevent the lining of the womb(endometrium) from coming off prematurely. 'this problem is common with many forms of hormonal contraception including the pill. Leave your nuva ring in.
