I misread my calendar and removed Nuvaring a week early (on Sunday 8/2). I had unprotected sex Monday night (8/3). I realized my mistake the next day (8/4) and took Plan B. Is it possible that I had already ovulated? I know if I take Nuvaring out before week 3, I'm not protected. I have had light spotting but no period as of today, (8/7). I know I'm supposed to reinsert the ring within 7 days, so I will on Sunday 8/9. I'm just very worried that I got pregnant.

How do you misread a calender? There is that potential of ovulation as soon as you take it out. Plan B will cause some bleeding tho, so don't get yourself too wound up. You might not have withdrawal bleeding after having it in only 2 weeks, don't worry about, just put the ring back in and follow your schedule next month.

I had the same problem I posted the week before the removal of my ring. I don't have a plan b at hand and it's been 4 days. I'm worried about it too.
