If you have been using the NuvaRing correctly & consistently, it is very unlikely that you became pregnant. You may be experiencing some hormonal changes or fluctuations, especially since you are having hot flashes. It can take several months for your body to return to normal after having a baby. Many things can alter you cycles: stress, surgery, illness, change in diet, exercise or sleep patterns. These can make periods come earlier, later or not at all.
Occasionally, after extended use of pills or the NuvaRing, some women will experience very short and light periods. Some women may skip a month here and there. This is not unusual. Continue using it as directed, and insert a new one on schedule.
However, if you are feeling like you are pregnant, for peace of mind, do a home pregnancy test.
