Accessing birth control is not always easy for many women. For women who are looking to prevent pregnancy, there are many options available that one can consider in the form of prescription or over-the-counter products. One of these options is called the NuvaRing, also known as the birth control ring. The NuvaRing performs is a form of what\u2019s called \u201chormonal contraception\u201d. It works by putting the body\u2019s hormone levels in a state where pregnancy isn\u2019t possible. Alternatives to the NuvaRing include the birth control pill, the Xulane patch, and the Depo-Provera injection.<\/p>\n

What is NuvaRing?<\/h2>\n

The NuvaRing is a small, flexible, ring-shaped instrument that is about two inches in diameter. This ring contains the hormones progestin and estrogen, as well as two substances crucial to preventing pregnancy called etonogestrel and ethinyl estradiol. How this ring works is that the user places it into the vagina, where it will release a low dosage of hormones periodically to create the conditions where pregnancy is impossible. This ring is to be replaced monthly, and the user can insert and remove them on their own without any professional assistance, similar to a tampon. When used correctly, the NuvaRing has a success rate of over 90 percent. You can buy NuvaRing<\/a> online for cheap, whether to try it out for the first time, or to stock up on more when you are running out.<\/p>\n

When the NuvaRing releases hormones into your body, the vaginal lining absorbs these hormones, which slows down the body\u2019s ovulation process. When this happens, your ovaries do not release any eggs for fertilization, meaning you become incapable of getting pregnant. The hormones that come with the NuvaRing also reinforce the mucus in your cervix, which blocks sperm cells and limits their ability to pass the cervix during intimacy.<\/p>\n

How to Handle Your NuvaRing?<\/h2>\n

While inserting a NuvaRing does sound easy and straightforward, there are a couple things that you absolutely have to do before you use it. Firstly, be sure to wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water to remove bacteria so it cannot enter the vagina. Clean and dry your hands after washing. When you are ready to insert your NuvaRing in, squeeze the sides of the ring together and gently work the ring into your vagina.
\nDon\u2019t worry about the placement of the ring. As long as you don\u2019t feel anything when you walk around, you have placed it in correctly. If you can feel it while walking around, remove it and try placing it in again.<\/p>\n

The NuvaRing is meant to be worn at all times, including during sleep, exercise, and during intimacy. It is not recommended, but you do have the option of removing it during intimacy. You should never leave it out for longer than 3 hours, and it must be rinsed with cool water before being put back in. You can either opt to leave your NuvaRing in for a whole month, or decide to take it out after three weeks and take a 7 day break. The latter option will mean you still get your regular menstrual period.<\/p>\n

Once you have your NuvaRing delivered to you, it them in a place at room temperature and away from sunlight. It is possible for your NuvaRing to expire, just like any other medication. Thus, make sure your NuvaRing is still good before you use it. If it is stored at room temperature it can be safely used for 4 months following the day your prescription is filled. If the expiry date on the packaging has passed do not use the NuvaRing.<\/p>\n

Summary<\/h3>\n

The NuvaRing is a birth control method that releases hormones into the body periodically. Using NuvaRing the right way ensures you can prevent pregnancy in a safe and low effort manner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
