A member asked:
Am i fully protected if i started nuvaring and had it in for 3 weeks/1week break new one in now, do i still have to use condoms for another cycle?

Only if new partner: Condoms combined with your Nuvaring can minimize the risk of STD's. If you trust your present partner and you both of free of STD's then the condom is optional. If you acquire a new partner, I would hope you would consider condom use again until that new partner is vetted free of STD's.
