What is Annovera?

ANNOVERA is a vaginal birth control ring that lasts for one full year, providing pregnancy protection for thirteen 28-day cycles. You insert the soft, flexible Annovera ring into your vagina and leave it in for 21 days, then remove for 7 days. Repeat this routine for 1 year (13 cycles). During the 7 days when the vaginal ring system is removed, it should be placed in the case provided. It should be cleaned with soap and water each time it is removed and before it is reinserted after 7 days.

How does Annovera work?

ANNOVERA contains both estrogen and progestin ingredients. ANNOVERA releases one of the lowest daily doses of ethinyl estradiol (0.013 mg/day) on the market and includes a new kind of progestin called segesterone acetate (0.15 mg/day). ANNOVERA continuously releases a low stream of these two hormones into your vagina, which then enter your blood, and provide pregancy protection for your body. The combination of hormones in Annovera work in the same way that combination pills work to prevent pregnancy. This is done by:

Blocking ovulation (this stops your eggs from leaving your ovaries).
Thickening the cervical mucus,which prevents sperm from reaching your uterus.
Thinning the lining of your uterus, making it difficult for eggs to implant in the uterus.

How to take Annovera

For each cycle, the ANNOVERA vaginal ring is inserted and left in place for 21 continuous days and then removed for 7 days. After removing the ring, it should be washed with mild soap and water, rinsed, and then repeated for all 13 cycles of the year. For more details on how to use Annovera: 1. First wash and dry your hands. Then remove ANNOVERA from the package and wash the ring with mild soap and water and pat it dry with a clean cloth towel or paper towel. At the beginning of each cycle, ANNOVERA should be washed and dried before insertion. 2. With clean hands, insert Annovera while you lie down, squat or stand. Using your thumb and index finger, squeeze the soft, flexible ANNOVERA ring into a narrow oval shape. After pressing the sides of the ring together, it should be inserted as far as possible into the vagina, and should not be felt. It does not need to be in an exact position to work. 3. Don't forget to write down the date and time so that you can remove it 3 weeks later at the same time of day (within 2 hours). 4. To remove Annovera, wash and dry your hands and assume a comfortable position. Then reach into your vagina, hook the ring using your index finger and pull downward and forward to remove. 5. Wash the ring with mild soap and lukewarm water, pat it dry with a clean paper towel or cloth, and store it in the case provided.

Effectiveness

When used as directed, ANNOVERA is as effective as the pill, but only needs to be inserted and removed once per month.
