I just started using Nuvaring again about 3 and a half weeks ago. I have never had a problem using the ring. Anyways Friday I took the ring out, and 3 days later, Monday my menstrual started but a day after I took the ring out I had terrible leg and pelvic pain like in the groin area all the way down to my knees. The pain only happened about 3 times on Saturday the day after I took out the ring. My menstrual came as planned but I barely have any bleeding. Very light and now I actually have stopped bleeding. That would be a menstrual of less than 2 days, I have no period symptoms either. Could I have gotten pregnant on the ring or could something else be happening with my body. How would you explain the terrible leg and groin pain?

I was on the ring for almost 2 years & my periods were very light, 2 days like you said, but the leg cramping I didn't have, like the pill & other hormone based contraceptive they can cause blood clots in your legs you should not put another ring in until you talk to your Dr., hope that helps

Are you pregnant? Anything is possible since most birth control is not 100%. The pain may have nothing to do with the ring, so I would go to your gynecologist to have that checked out.

was that one of the possible side effects on the insert it came with? read over the insert again. let your doctor know about the pain and light period. take a preggers test to be safe.

You probably inserted your ring in wrong and took it out to quick next time you insert it or take it out lay down and you probably won't have leg pain or shakes.

I use it too, and I have had about every side effect possible! I am going to be switching from it to something else soon! I think that you def need to go and get a preg test just to make sure that you are not pregnant. then call your doc and just ask him/her what they think about it!

Your body is rejecting it or what it is made of for some reason See a Dr and get something else
