I am a 26 year old female. I have been on the Nuvaring with no problems for about 5 years. I took the ring out last Friday (it is Wednesday now) with no signs of period. I am sexually active, but don t see how I could be pregnant since I have been using the ring. But I realize something could have gone wrong and it happened anyways. I have had really strong headaches in the front of my head and top these past 2 days. Today, along with the headache, when I stand up I get dizzy and sometimes I can feel my pulse. Any suggestions on what is going on or what would help me to get feeling better? Thanks.

hi! thanks for consulting healthcaremagic. at your age, I don't think that the symptoms you are having, are very alarming. in my opinion its just an episode of headache. as far as your periods are concerned wait for further 21 days and then consult obstetrician if the problem persists. for headache, you can take 2 tablets of paracetamol. Have a nice day.
