A member asked:
I'm on the birth control nuvaring and i recently started light cramping and brown discharge. i do not take out my nuvaring at all. is this normal?

Nuvaring: Not sure why you don't change NuvaRing when it's advised to have it changed. Otherwise, after a month of use it loses its effectiveness. As with any birth control, it is known to cause breakthrough bleedings. Perhaps, this is what you are experiencing.
