NuvaRing, a heavily marketed and widely distributed contraceptive vaginal ring, was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2001 and is used by more than 1,000,000 women worldwide. Recent studies, however, suggest that NuvaRing’s benefits are not without potentially serious side effects.
NuvaRing patients in two clinical studies discontinued NuvaRing use at a rate of just over 15 percent, citing adverse events. While some adverse events are relatively minor, like headaches, others are more serious. In fact, some patients have experienced cardiovascular issues such as stroke and heart attack.
