Insurance that helps pay expenses for nursing care or other help in old age sounds like a great idea. But when companies started selling long-term-care insurance policies decades ago they did a poor job of figuring out how much to charge, forcing them to repeatedly raise rates to consumers.
Just yesterday I went to the doctor to start on the NuvaRing. The doctor had me insert the ring at the appointment even though I'm at day 15 of my cycle. When I got home, I read that women who are starting NuvaRing who haven't been on another form of oral contraceptive should start the ring between days 1 and 5 of their cycle.
Here is how to use NuvaRing. You should put it in Day 1-the day you start your period. (It may or may not stop your bleeding. It is different for each woman. If you put it in sometime between periods, it can throw your cycle way off so it is best to wait for your cycle to begin.
