But a lapse in your cycle doesn't mean you can't get pregnant. Remember, ovulation occurs before you get your period. It's possible for you to ovulate and then get pregnant before you ever see your period. So if you don't want back-to-back babies, use protection.

Advantages. The exact position is not important for NuvaRing to be effective. Using the birth control ring is convenient and you don't need to take it daily (like the pill).

Your body doesn't need to time to “clear” birth control hormones. In fact, it's possible for you to conceive within a month or two of stopping most types. If you want to go off hormonal birth control but aren't ready to get pregnant, use another method, like condoms, until you are ready.

What makes NuvaRing less effective? The main thing that makes the ring not work is not using it correctly. That means you're more likely to get pregnant if you don't put your new ring in on time, or if the ring is out of your vagina for more than 2 days (48 hours) during the weeks when you're supposed to be wearing it.
