Morgan Robinson, thanks for the reply 🙂

I’m liking NuvaRing so far. No major side effects yet, and the convenience is solid. 🙂
The only annoyance is the discharge. It’s been there all month—started light, but got heavier this past week.

I followed the steps correctly. Inserted on day one of my cycle and left it in for three weeks.
Took it out Monday. My period hasn't actually started yet, just the discharge. Probably that delay in bleeding you mentioned.

Hoping things level out next cycle. The discharge is irritating, both for me and my partner 😉, and I don't want to go back to other methods now that I've found NuvaRing 😉

Still have those nagging doubts about how effective it really is, even if I haven't seen any red flags. 🤷

Hey ladies, just wanted to give a quick update on this thread...

I finally pulled the trigger on NuvaRing (my first successful run with hormonal birth control 😉. A few years back I tried the pill, but it made me feel absolutely miserable every single time, so I always quit using it..
Now, after a few years, I'm trying NuvaRing and honestly? It’s great. No issues so far, not even any side effects—though I've only had it in for about ten days, so who knows what happens next 😉
One small thing, though: my period ended five days ago, but I'm still dealing with some light brown spotting... reading through the forum, it seems like some of you have dealt with this too. Does anyone know how long this lasts, and does the ring stay fully effective during this period? :-)
