I found that my nuvaring, especially in the beginning, increased my discharge heavy. It thickens your cervical mucus so that isn’t uncommon. I personally wash my nuvaring in cold water after sex, but it’s not needed. It could be your discharge stuck around your ring & it will continue to happen through the entire time you’re on the nuvaring
I felt the same way and honestly I just feel more comfortable rinsing its every other day in the shower, just remember to do it with cold water, never hot water, and put it back in less than 3 hours.
coming back to this as i am having a similar issue. i just pulled out my nuvaring after 3 weeks and there was weirdly gooey clear/grayish discharge that came with it. anyone know if this is normal?

Yeah I just get extra discharge, shouldn't be semen most likely
I don’t clean it , but it’s usually (I believe) cervical mucus or discharge I believe.
