Pregnant Immediately after Nuva Ring?

JessicaS0616

Sorry if this has been asked, I looked and didnt see anything as specific as this.

 I have been on Nuva ring for almost 3 years(after my son was born) and a few months prior to concieving #1. First time I stopped it, I had no symptoms, no problem concieving. Recently I took out my Nuva Ring after my normal 3 weeks, had a normal period, and didnt put the ring back in! now, 3 weeks after my period I have a ton of strange symptoms. I have had spotting for about 2 weeks, tender breasts, lack of sex drive, and tired... oh so tired  (And maybe a mood swing or two ) I really wasnt TTC, although not opposed to the idea, Is it even possible to be pregnant so soon? I haven't even had 1 complete cycle since stopping BC. I've read on here that many people experience weird symptoms after Nuva Ring or any hormonal BC, but has anyone actually gotten pregnant so soon after?

 

Thanks

Yes, it's totally possible to get pregnant the first cycle off of the NuvaRing. But it's also very common for women to have phantom "pregnancy symptoms" that don't turn out to be caused by a pregnancy their first cycle off of the NuvaRing. The symptoms you're describing could all be attributed to progesterone, which is higher at the end of your menstrual cycle. If you think you could be pregnant, take a test.

Its definitely possible. We started TTC right off of nuvaring and got pregnant the first cycle off of it.

When we started TTC, I took my Nuva Ring out early. AF came 2 days later. POAS 4 weeks later. Bam: positive!

I had a friend who took her's out and must have conceived 6 or 7 days after according to her ultrasound.  She was using OPK and temping and thought that she wasn't ovulating and she found out later that she just ovulated so early that she didn't catch it.

I wasn't on NuvaRing but I got pregnant after my first cycle off the pill. I was hoping it would take the "3 months" my OB said but alas, it did not even take 30 days...

all you lucky ladies! It took me 1 yr off the ring before I conceived :-) Good luck
