A member asked:
My doctor told me to put a new nuvaring in every week for three weeks, then leave it out for a week and repeat, shouldn't it only be one ring a month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nuvaring: When using the nuvaring, the common way to use it is to wear it for 3 weeks, then take it out for a week to have a period, then put a new one in for another 3 weeks. That way a new ring is put in every four weeks.
