I have been using adaring discs for 8 months, everything has been okay so far, I got a period of 2 days after taking it out. And now 2 days before removing the disc I got spotting and on the day of removing the disc (I take out at 22) I got my period in the morning. It was stronger than usual. Is this a cause for concern?

To @Ula: If you have persistent bleeding problems, consult your gynecologist.
The period ended on Monday. I put the puck on Thursday and the next day I got pink spotting in the evening what can it mean?

Up to @Ula: No, intracyclic bleeding (even intense bleeding) can occur even with proper disc function.
Could severe mid-cyclic bleeding mean that the disc is not working or has been damaged?

To @Karo66: No, the puck should work.
So there is no way for the disc to stop working if it was inside all the time?

To @Karo66: If the disc has been outside the vagina for more than 3 hours, its contraceptive efficacy may have decreased.
Can the disc lose its effect if it has not been removed for more than 3 hours?

For @Ula: If you have intermittent bleeding or spotting, it does not mean that the disc is not working properly.
Do the discs maintain their effectiveness in this case or could it be a sign that the disc has stopped working? If in a week I put a new disc to maintain its operation?

When using contraceptive rings, any bleeding disorders should be consulted with a gynecologist. Changes in secretion or bleeding can occur with contraceptive rings such as Adaring, but the possibility that these changes may be caused by infection or other inflammation should also be ruled out. If you are unable to get to your doctor, the GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to obtain a teleconsultation with a doctor: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja I enclose a link to the page where you can check the availability of Adaring in pharmacies in Poland and book the drug in the selected pharmacy: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/98006/adaring-przyrzad/apteki
