What is Nuvaring?
NuvaRing 0.12 mg -0.015 mg/24 hr Vaginal
Drug Name: ETONOGESTREL/ETHINYL ESTRADIOL
Other Brand Names: Nuvaring
Uses: This medication is a combination of 2 hormones (an estrogen and a progestin) and is used to prevent pregnancy. It works mainly by preventing the release of an egg (ovulation) during your menstrual cycle. It also can work by making vaginal fluid thicker to help prevent sperm from reaching an egg (fertilization) and by changing the lining of the uterus (womb) to prevent attachment of a fertilized egg. If a fertilized egg does not attach to the uterus, it passes out of the body. Using this hormone ring does not protect you or your partner against HIV or other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
