Brown discharge on NR normal?

Posted at 11:54 PM on Sep 06, 2008 by rch0604, #7433

I've been on NuvaRing for three weeks now - I'll be taking it out tomorrow for my period week. The only side effect I've noticed is brown discharge, a moderate amount, just about every day. Sometimes I even get some pink when I wipe. Is this a normal side effect of the NuvaRing or could it be something else, like an infection?

I have had the exact same thing and that was actually why I came on, to see if that was normal. I am assuming it is normal if we both have it. Do you still get it now that you have been on it longer?

Yep - it's gone away now...I do have more discharge than I used to, but now it's the regular clear/white
