A member asked:

Does the placement of the nuvaring matter as long as it is in the vagina and not coming out?

Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

In vagina : As long as the NuvaRing is inside the vagina and not on the floor you are using it correctly. There is no wrong way for it to be inside the vagina.
