A member asked:
I am on nuvaring. is it normal for me to have lower abdominal pain & light spotting ? (the pain is dull)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Abdominal pain and cramping are common side effets. If these are persistent i would go to your doctor. Pelvic inflammatory disease also has the same symptoms which you definitely would not want to go unchecked.
