Birth Control
by Florence Cardinal on March 27, 2007

Now we have something to insert again, but this is different enough to merit mention. It's called the NuvaRing® .
NuvaRing® is a different kind of birth control. The comfortable, flexible contraceptive ring that is about two inches in diameter is used to prevent pregnancy. You insert NuvaRing® into your vagina just once a month. The muscles in your vaginal wall will keep NuvaRing® in place for three weeks. During that time, it will slowly release a low dose of hormones that are needed to prevent pregnancy.
Does it work? According to Dawn Stacey M.Ed, LMHC, About Guide to Contraception:
The NuvaRing® is 99.7% effective. This means that with perfect use, less than 1 out of every 100 women who use the ring will become pregnant. Preliminary research is showing that with typical use, the NuvaRing® will be more effective than the Pill. There are no published studies detailing the effectiveness with typical use.

My partner started using the Nuvaring and it seriously damaged my penis. I have visited the doctor twice and I'm still having problems. Has anyone encountered the same?
