Will I feel the ring inside of me?
I can feel the ring inside me.
Using the ring shouldn’t be uncomfortable, and you shouldn’t feel the ring inside of you when you’re having sex. If you do, try pushing it up further into your vagina. Don’t worry, it won’t get lost up there. Promise.
Still not working?
If you can feel the ring inside you and it’s uncomfortable, you can check to make sure it’s in correctly](/birth-control/the_ring_monthly#how_to_tab) (although the ring doesn’t need to be in a specific place to work as birth control). If it still isn’t still uncomfortable, maybe try a method that doesn’t go in your vagina, like the pill, patch, or the shot.
