Leave Nuva Ring for 4 weeks and immediately put a new one?
I am planning to get back on hormonal birth control to be more spontaneous with my partner. I have an appointment scheduled with my gyn in May and I want to get the Nuva Ring because it is more convenient for me.
I keep reading that you use the Ring for 3 weeks + 1 Ring-free week, then you put a new one. I do not mind getting my withdrawal bleeding but I was wondering if I can use the Ring for 4 weeks straight and then insert a new one, skipping the bleeding.
Will it still be as effective?
How often do you recommend skipping a period like this?
