My partner and I have not been trying to conceive which is why I started nuvaring earlier this year near the end of February and it was working fine. I had my period by the end of the first month I started using it. And we did occasionally have unprotected sex. I do remember having unprotected sex around the first week I got the nuvaring. And this month my period came early. I was very confused and just let it be for the first week. It was very light spotting and sometimes it would stop and then start again. So since I thought I was having an early period I decided to take the nuvaring out after five days of spotting. This weekend I went to the gym like usual and did some heavy lifting, and I noticed some really bad cramping starting, and I thought maybe I would finally have a regular full on period and not just the spotting that day. I came home from the gym and I squatted down and felt something come out that wasn't blood. I went to the bathroom to check it out and it looked like a giant blood clot maybe? So I didn't make it a big deal even though that has never happened to me during any of my periods. I hopped into the shower and something else started coming out again, it was another blood clot similar to the one before but a bit bigger than the last one. Should I be worried? I'm not sure if this is normal for periods or if it was a possible miscarriage? Could I have been pregnant and not known?
