Is it normal to have very light bleeding as a perod while using the nuvaring ?

Common: Enjoy this nice side effect. Low dose pills commonly cause women to stop or significantly slow their periods.

Yes: Patients who use NuvaRing usually experience light menstrual bleeding, which is a known effect from the combination of estrogen and progesterone released from the nuvaring.
