The NuvaRing pregnancy rate and those of several other contraceptive methods (all "when used as directed") are as follows:

• 99 percent (effective at preventing pregnancy ) — NuvaRing
• 99 percent — combined hormonal pill (e.g., "the Pill")
• 99 percent — patch (e.g., the OrthoEvra patch)
• 97 percent — male condom
• 94 percent — diaphragm with spermicide
• 74 – 91 percent — cervical cap with spermicide

NuvaRing: An Effective Contraceptive

Indeed, NuvaRing pregnancy statistics obtained in clinical trials are impressive. In a 2001 study, of the 2,300 women enrolled in the study while using a NuvaRing, only 21 women became pregnant, and 11 of these 21 pregnancies were attributed to using the NuvaRing incorrectly. Clearly, the NuvaRing birth control method is a very effective pregnancy contraceptive when it is used correctly.

Dangerous NuvaRing Side Effects

However, the risks that accompany NuvaRing use have been highlighted in recent years as reports of stroke, heart attack and DVT (deep vein thrombosis) continue to arise in conjunction with the NuvaRing.

NuvaRing and Pregnancy Tests

The NuvaRing is designed to be worn for three weeks and then removed for a fourth week. The cycle is repeated over and over for as long as the wearer wants to prevent pregnancy. Unfortunately, it's rather easy to forget to remove the NuvaRing at the end of the third week (and to forget to put in a new NuvaRing on the scheduled day).

Thus, many women have become concerned about their risk of pregnancy when their NuvaRing timing gets behind or mixed up. The NuvaRing prescribing information and the NuvaRing website both have sections answering questions about the pregnancy risk when the NuvaRing schedule is missed.

Back-Up Method to Avoid Getting Pregnant

For example, if a woman forgets that her NuvaRing is in place past the three-week mark, even during the first cycle, the NuvaRing instructions advise her to use another type of contraception (e.g., spermicide, condoms) until the next NuvaRing has been used continuously for one week.

If You Became Pregnant While Using a NuvaRing

If you became pregnant while using a NuvaRing, and particularly if you experienced any complications or NuvaRing side effects, it's in your best interests to further educate yourself about this controversial contraceptive.
