: If your partner did not use condom in the last couple weeks, conception is possible because you could not tell when you had lost the ring. I suggest condom use in the mean time and check urine pregnancy test on Feb 20 to rule out pregnancy before inserting the new ring. If you have period before 2/14 you can insert the ring on 2/14.
