Inserting and removing NuvaRing

1
Is NuvaRing for me? NuvaRing is a different kind
of birth control. It could be the ideal choice
because... NuvaRing has a low incidence of side
effects The low, steady hormone release of
NuvaRing can mean a low incidence of side
effects, such as headache, nausea, breast
tenderness and breakthrough bleeding.2,4NuvaRing
is designed to work with a low dosage of
hormones. Because it provides steady, consistent
hormone release over the entire month, NuvaRing
has fewer hormonal ups and downs than daily or
weekly birth control.2,4,5 NuvaRing is 99
effective In clinical testing with thousands of
women, NuvaRing (when used as directed) has been
proven to be 99 effective, the same as the pill.
NuvaRing is convenient NuvaRing is a birth
control method you don't have to remember daily
or weekly because you insert NuvaRing monthly.
The soft, flexible, and comfortable contraceptive
ring is easy to insert and remove -- exact
position is not important for it to be effective.
NuvaRing is discreet Unlike the patch and some
other forms of birth control, no one except you
needs to know you're using it. You insert and
remove NuvaRing privately, and once inserted,
most women and their partners will not notice
it's there. NuvaRing allows for
spontaneity NuvaRing is a birth control method
that allows you and your partner to enjoy total
spontaneity. What's more, most women can't feel
NuvaRing once it's in place. In surveys with
thousands of women, 98 found NuvaRing
comfortable. In these same surveys, 8 out of 10
partners did not feel NuvaRing, and those who
did generally did not mind.
Will NuvaRing fall out? The muscles of your
vagina will keep NuvaRing securely in place,
even during exercise or sex. You can check the
contraceptive ring periodically with your finger.
If it does slip out, and if it has been out less
than three hours, you should still be protected
from pregnancy. Rinse the contraceptive ring with
cool-to-lukewarm (not hot) water and re-insert it
as soon as possible, at the latest within three
hours. Can NuvaRing get lost inside of me? No.
Although the vagina is flexible, it is not much
longer than the palm of your hand. NuvaRing
cannot go farther than the cervix. What does
NuvaRing feel like when it's in my vagina? Most
women don't feel NuvaRing. You insert the
contraceptive ring into your vagina, far enough
inside so that you will not feel it once it's in
(while the nerve endings in your outer vagina are
very sensitive, the ones in your upper vagina are
not). If you feel NuvaRing in your vagina, use
your finger to gently push it in further.  Will
NuvaRing cause an infection if used as
directed? NuvaRing has been demonstrated to be
safe if left in the vagina as directed. NuvaRing
is also non-absorbent and odorless. Will my
partner or I feel NuvaRing? Most women do not
feel NuvaRing, but if you do, slide it farther
into your vagina. While the nerve endings in your
outer vagina are very sensitive to the touch, the
ones in the upper vagina are not. In a survey
among thousands of NuvaRing users, 8 out of
10 partners did not feel NuvaRing, and those who
did generally did not mind.
