Hi, welcome to our site. I am Dr Saumya Mittal, MD.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

I would suggest you meet a gynecologist urgently who can examine the area and have a good look at it to remove the ring. Meanwhile, if there is a delay in the appointment, get an x ray/usg of the pelvis. These may help the gynecologist know where the ring may have got displaced. That way she may be able to help you quicker.

Slipping/displacement of the ring is a common phenomenon. And so you need not worry too much. Just meet the experts and they can help you

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above/if any other so I can be of help further.

I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.

Please do understand that some details could be extracted from a detailed history and examination.

Please feel free to ask another query. I would be glad to help you. Looking forward to your return query with the details asked so that I can help you further.
(If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
Best of luck.
