That happens: continue using it according to your schedule.

It is possible: When the ring is removed sometimes the period is delayed and there is not much of a lining to shed and the brown red spotting can occur. It is not a problem unless you develop a fever and/or abdominal pain. Monitor for pain or discomfort and if so , please be seen
