hi everyone! so i’m supposed to be on my break week but i’m aware you can keep the ring in for 4 weeks and still be protected. will i experience any heightened side effects? and can i still take my break week after the 4 weeks or do i need to insert another one immediately? i just don’t want cramps during my midterm this week lol. sorry if this is a dumb question by the way, it’s just my first time doing this :’). thank u! •⏹💤💤💤▶️•••••••••••••••••••••• Brand: NuvaRing

There is no way to know what will happen if you decide to skip your break now. You’ll remain protected but we can’t tell you if you’ll experience heightened side effects. But yes you can just move your break week.

aw ok… well i’ll wait and see what happens then. thanks again 🥰

You may experience side effects. You may not. As for taking a break after 4 weeks check your pamphlet. It should tell you.
