Reduce the risk of ovarian cysts
A new ring is placed and worn for 3 consecutive weeks. No ring is worn during Week 4, when you might likely have withdrawal bleeding.
Nuvaring birth control ring has 2 main active ingredients: Etonogestrel 0.12 mcg (progesterone) and Ethinyl Estradiol 0.015 mcg (estrogen).
The risks are very low, but some women have experienced unwanted side effects when using Nuvaring. Minor ones include breast tenderness, headaches, nausea, swollen feet or ankles, and slightly elevated blood pressure or blood sugar levels. Positive side effects: reduced acne, fewer mood swings, and other benefits are fairly common.
The chances of serious side effects are extremely unlikely, but some cases have been documented. Symptoms include heart disease, blood clotting, shortness of breath, migraines, vision problems, slurred speech, confusion, and fainting. Those who wear contacts or are nearsighted may notice vision problems as well. These may sound scary, but remember — they’re very rare.

Nuvaring is a combination birth control contraceptive ring that prevents pregnancy by preventing the release of an egg (ovulation) and thickening the cervical mucus, blocking sperm from getting into the uterus and getting to the egg. Nuvaring is also prescribed to: treat acne, reduce the risk of ovarian cysts (as in polycystic ovarian syndrome [PCOS]), treat painful or heavy periods, and more.
Do not use Nuvaring if you smoke cigarettes and are over 35 years old. Smoking increases your risk of serious cardiovascular side effects from combination hormonal contraceptives (CHCs), including death from heart attack, blood clots or stroke. This risk increases with age and the number of cigarettes you smoke. In these cases, Pandia Health Medical group’s doctors recommend progestin-only pill (POPs), IUD with hormone (Mirena, Liletta, Kyleena, Skyla), implant (nexplanon), the birth control shot (depo-provera), or condoms and spermicide.
Nuvaring comes with an applicator that resembles a tampon and makes it super easy to insert.
With Nuvaring, 7/100 women will get pregnant using it per year. Nuvaring has the same theoretical efficacy as the regular combination (estrogen and progesterone) birth control pill or patch. However, some say that it should be slightly better because you only have to think about it once a month vs. the birth control patch, every week, vs the birth control pill every day.
Do not use Phexxi with Nuvaring. The Phexxi can eat into the ring and make the Nuvaring not work as well.
As with any new prescription, you should go over anything you’re already taking with your doctor or Pandia Health Care Advisor before starting on Nuvaring. This includes recreational drugs, over-the-counter meds, and even herbal supplements. Even something that seems relatively harmless such as St. John’s wort can cause Nuvaring to be less effective at preventing pregnancy. There are certain meds you should absolutely bring up. These are aromatase inhibitors, cancer, HIV, seizure, and chronic hepatitis C medications.
Nuvaring should be available at just about any pharmacy in your area. It does require a prescription from a doctor, though. If you’re hesitant to approach your doctor about Nuvaring or simply prefer the privacy, convenience, and ease of the internet, give Pandia Health a try.

The doctors at Pandia were able to help me find a birth control that worked for me which I didn't think was possible!! I didn't realize how many factors there were to consider before choosing a certain bc. Now I'm not experiencing any side effects!”

"I’ve been getting my birth control from them for a bout a year now and they’re amazing. They always check up and always make sure to mail my birth control on time. They even add little things in the package like stickers and little candies. They’re so nice and it’s very easy to get in touch with someone if you ever need any help. I definitely would recommend them to anyone who is interested in getting on birth control."
