NuvaRing represents another useful contraceptive option for women. The vaginal administration confers benefits and women do not appear to dislike this route of hormone delivery. Efficacy and cycle control are the least comparable to conventional COCs and adverse events are minimal, though vaginal side effects are reported more commonly. Women may find that trying to insert the ring in the clinic will allay any concerns they have with regard to insertion and removal.
