Abaya, given what I know about birth control and the way hormonal birth control functions with our system, I can say that you should be able to use the Nuva Ring to skip 1 period. You could probably use it to skip more, given that it is a steady dose of hormone (unlike, say, tri-cyclic pills). The comparison can be made to Seasonale, which is glorified steady Ortho-Cyclen (mono-cyclic pills).
The only problem I can see with attempting to do this is the possibility of breakthrough bleeding, which wouldn't happen until a couple of months down the road.
Hope that helps (I should note I'm not a doctor, just obsessed with health and sex education).
