What Causes Delayed Periods After The Removal Of Nuvaring?
I am on the nuvaring and i keep all of my period info, times and dates of when to take it out and put a new one in Inside my phone. Well the phone with all that info broke and i lost all the info and the alerts i needed so for the month of Nov. I had to guess when to take out the nuvaring and replace. So when i did i didnt start my period so naturaly i thought i must have kept it in a week too long and skipped it. So i made the decision to leave it out till my period started for this month but it hasnt started yet. I have taken 3 pregnancy tests all negative. And my husband and i used condoms while i had it out.

Hi,
Thanks for letting us know your health concern. Well, the most likely cause of the delayed period in the current scenario seems to be hormone imbalance. Failure of contraception leading to pregnancy seems to be a remote possibility since you used double protection. Please remember that home pregnancy tests read well when performed 3-7 days after the missed period with a fresh early morning sample of urine. If you still suspect pregnancy, you can go for the blood test and follow it up with a trans-vaginal sonogram. Further management can be accordingly planned. Hope this helps.
