  • Instructions: Insert 1 ring vaginally for 3 weeks, remove for 1 week, then insert new ring.
  • Ingredients: Etonogestrel, Ethinyl Estradiol.

How the Vaginal Ring Works

How the Vaginal Ring Works

The vaginal ring is a flexible device inserted into the vagina that releases hormones to prevent pregnancy. It works by stopping ovulation and creating changes in cervical mucus to reduce the chance of fertilization.

Several factors may impact its effectiveness, including:

  • Incorrect insertion or placement

  • Forgetting to replace the ring on time

  • Removing it for extended periods

  • Certain medications

  • Hormonal sensitivity

A provider consultation helps guide proper use and ensures the vaginal ring is a safe and suitable choice for your needs.
