NuvaRing is a flexible vaginal ring used as a form of contraception to prevent pregnancy. It is a small, plastic ring that is inserted into the vagina and left in place for three weeks, during which time it releases a continuous low dose of hormones (etonogestrel and ethinyl estradiol) that work to prevent ovulation. These hormones work together to prevent ovulation and thicken cervical mucus, making it more difficult for sperm to reach and fertilize an egg.

Etonogestrel is a type of progestin, while ethinyl estradiol is a type of estrogen. The combination of these hormones in the NuvaRing has been found to be highly effective at preventing pregnancy when used properly. Etonogestrel and ethinyl estradiol are the two hormones contained in the NuvaRing vaginal ring, which is a hormonal method of birth control. NuvaRing is a convenient and effective method of birth control for many women, but it may not be suitable for everyone.

To insert NuvaRing, wash your hands first and then squeeze the ring between your thumb and forefinger. Gently insert it into your vagina and position it so that it is comfortable. At the end of the three weeks, the ring is removed for a one-week break, during which time a withdrawal bleed is expected. After the week is over, a new ring is inserted to start the process again. To remove NuvaRing, simply hook your finger around the ring and gently pull it out.

The recommended dosage of Etonogestrel/Ethinyl Estradiol is one vaginal ring (NuvaRing) inserted into the vagina for 3 weeks (21 days), followed by a 1-week (7 day) ring-free interval, during which a woman will usually experience her menstrual period. This process is then repeated with a new ring inserted at the end of the 1-week ring-free interval. The vaginal ring releases a low dose of hormones, 120 micrograms of etonogestrel and 15 micrograms of ethinyl estradiol, per day over the 21-day period.
