Do i take nuvaring out if i start bleeding while it is in?

No: Use as directed and keep track of any bleeding or adverse symptoms while on it. If you think you may be pregnant, check a pregnancy test. Visit you doctor if you are consistently having bleeding or problems so you can talk about other options.

No: If you have just started using the ring, some spotting for 2 or 3 months will be normal. If you have been using the ring for over 5 months without breakthrough bleeding (btb) and then start having btb - see your doctor.
