Is NuvaRing An Effective Reversible Method Of Birth Control?

Posted on Thu, 31 Dec 2015

Question: I use to be the Depo shot but I was having my period for a year and a half so my doctor decided that it would be best that I try the nuva ring. I'm currently on my ring free week and am back on my period, which is fine. My question is can I stop using the birth control now to get back on my regular cycle, so I am able to conceive? This is my first ring free week.

Each cycle has chance of pregnancy around 10 to 15 percent provided sperms and your eggs are good.
