Nuva-Ring

Has anyone gotten pregnant while using Nuva-Ring as a birth control? I have been taking the form of birth control for 4 months now and my period was due today, but nothing yet. If it hasn't started by Saturday, we will get a home test, but I was just curious. Previously, on other forms of birth control, my period will be by the calendar, and then there will be one off month in which it will come a little late. When I actually was pregnant, I had the worst cramps of my life, before my period was due, and they continued for a week or two after that. No cramps at all right now, and I seriously doubt it, but it did get me thinking. So, do you use Nuva-Ring, for how long, and have you gotten pregnant while using?

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank you for all of the answers. My Aunt Flow came for a visit this morning. Thanks for the info on the recall, I will definitely look into it.

Ummm... my cousin is due with twins in April... and she was on the ring. She has been on it for the last 4 years. I heard that there was a birth control recall recently, and that the ring was on the list. Might be something for you to check out.

I know a number of friends that use it and have never had any problems at all with it. No surprises. I bled almost the entire time I tried using it and after a few months my dr and I agreed it wasn't going to work for me so I can't offer first hand knowledge.

I have used it for over two years. My periods are not as "regular" as witih the pill. Sometimes late, more often early...
