Dear ketzia
reinsert it as soon as possible, at the latest within 3 hours. You should still be protected from pregnancy. If you抳e lost NuvaRing, insert a new NuvaRing?/SUP>
If NuvaRing is out for more than 3 continuous hours during the first 2 weeks of starting a new NuvaRing: Contraceptive effectiveness may have been reduced, so you might not be protected from pregnancy. Reinsert the ring as soon as possible and use an extra method of birth control (such as condoms or spermicide) until you have used NuvaRing for 7 days in a row
If NuvaRing has been out for more than 3 continuous hours during the third week of using a new NuvaRing
Thanks
