A wide variety of hormonal contraceptives are available on the market which have been proven to be very effective in preventing pregnancy in women. The most popular of the hormonal contraceptives are the contraceptive pills. Although recent research has shown that the popularity of other hormonal contraceptive methods such as contraceptive patches and contraceptive rings are gaining popularity at a faster pace. Both these methods are similar in effect to that of the oral combination pills.

The contraceptive ring is a new form of contraceptive that is used by millions of women today. It is a small, thin and flexible ring that you are required to insert in your vagina. These rings have been proven to be almost 99% effective in preventing pregnancy. Using the contraceptive ring is also very simple; you simply need to squeeze it between your thumb and index finger, and insert it into your vagina. Similarly, you can remove the ring by hooking your index finger under the forward rim. NuvaRing is the most popular ring used by women around the world.

NuvaRing is a combined contraceptive ring, which consists of ethinylestradiol (artificial oestrogen) and etenogestrel (artificial progesterone) as its active ingredients. This ring has been proven to be almost 100% effective in prevention of pregnancy. This ring is also known as a low-dosage hormonal contraceptive, as the ingredients are gradually released into your body from the ring. It works by preventing ovulation from occurring and altering the womb lining so that an egg if produced and fertilized cannot attach itself and grow. This ring can be used by women who are aged between 18 and 40 years.
