Yes, in this situation it is necessary to use an additional method of contraception (e.g. condoms) for at least 7 days, because the delay has exceeded 48 hours. In the first week of the cycle, the risk of ovulation increases, which can reduce the effectiveness of contraception. If you have had unprotected sex in the last few days before the ring is inserted, there is a risk of pregnancy – in this case, it is worth consulting your doctor about emergency contraception.
