About Annovera vaginal ring
Annovera is a vaginal ring that contains two female hormones, segesterone acetate and ethinyl estradiol, which are slowly released into the vagina.
Annovera is used to prevent pregnancy. Annovera is available only by prescription. It is available in a generic formulation under different brand names, including the ethinyl estradiol vaginal system (vaginal ring).
Annovera may be prescribed as a vaginal ring. It’s always important to follow the specific instructions on your prescription, as they can vary based on the formulation and dosage prescribed.
If you're prescribed Annovera, complete the full course of hormonal birth control unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to stop. If you don’t complete your prescription, the hormonal birth control may not be as effective in preventing pregnancy.
