It's not surprising that you would have a very light period, even to the point of seeing no bleeding, after changing from Mirena to NuvaRing. Any hormonal Birth Control lightens withdrawal bleeding and may cause a missed period. If you're worried about pregnancy, take a test.
Using hormonal birth control - like The Pill, NuvaRing (Ortho Evra), or Mirena (IUD) should make your period shorter and lighter.
Yes, after Mirena is removed, you will ovulate about 14 days before you have your first period.
Yes, inserting the first NuvaRing will often shorten a woman's period.
You may not have any more bleeding this month. Use a backup method for seven days, but you're probably protected right away if you started NuvaRing with spotting.
Yes, there is a possibility that the NuvaRing can make your period come at an irregular time.
If she started the NuvaRing on the first day of her period, you've got nothing to worry about.
Yes, inserting NuvaRing before your period can delay bleeding.
the same thing just happened to me, and I was really upset but I called organon, they said its perfectly normal, especially if i started using nuvaring recently.
Most Dr's will tell you to wait until you've had 1 normal period.
If you start using NuvaRing on day one of your period, you will be instantly protected because you are not ovulating. If you wait until days 2 - 5, you could not be protected if you have already started to ovulate.
If you had the Paragard removed, you can expect your next period at the usual time, as the copper IUD does not change the timing of the menstrual cycle. If you had Mirena removed, your period may be irregular for a month or so before settling into its new pattern.
After Mirena is removed, you can expect your hormones and period to return to its previous pattern within 4-6 weeks. Like the birth control pill, Mirena gets out of your system quickly once removed.
