I've only been using NuvaRing two months. My first month I started menstruating the a day before I removed the ring- and it lasted for 6 days.  This is my second month and 4 days after removal I still have not started.I want to know for those who use the Ring- how long does it typically take for you to start?  I don't have any other symptoms at the moment so I'm not terribly worried, but if I don't start by this weekend I will take a test to be sure.  I always thought that menstruation began within a day or two of removal.Thanks.

When I first started, the first couple of months my body was trying to regulate and i would start my period the day after or three days after or sometimes 5 days after... That lasted for about 4 months then it regulated its self. I used the Nuva ring for a little over a year and each time it was like clock work. I would get my period the 4th day after i took it out..... Just be patient. This happends with all birth control.Good Luck!
