My Nuvaring won't go in all the way? TMI, but I can feel it with the tip of myfinger. I tried the tampon applicator method and can't push it in any further with my finger. Will it still work/how do I put it in further?

I have been using Nuvaring for 2 months now.. I was concerned that I would not be able to get it back to my cervix, as mine is somewhat tilted. I covered this with my provider.. A, it does not have to be flat against your cervix, just needs to be close.. B, if you are in a relationship where you feel comfortable doing so, you can have your partner help you get nuvaring in place, as they will have a better angle.. I noticed when changing my nuvaring this last time that it is MUCH, MUCH, easier to change nuvaring right after sex, it goes back easily with little discomfort or effort! I will prob always try to do this way if at all possible, it was such a noticeable difference. Hope this helps!!
