What is Annovera?

Annovera (segesterone acetate and ethinyl estradiol vaginal system) is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Therapeuticsmd, inc. Like birth control pills, the Annovera ring contains progestin and estrogen, which prevent ovulation. Annovera is less invasive than other long-lasting contraceptives, such as intrauterine devices (IUDs). Annovera is used by females of reproductive potential to prevent pregnancy.

Annovera does not protect you from sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV. Use barrier contraceptives, like male or female condoms.

What doses of Annovera are available?

Annovera is available as a silicone elastomer vaginal system, in the following doses: 103 mg segesterone acetate and 17.4 mg ethinyl estradiol.

The vaginal system must remain in place for 3 weeks followed by a 1-week vaginal system-free interval. One vaginal system provides contraception for thirteen menstrual cycles (1 full year). See the full prescribing information for the complete boxed warning.

Speak with a healthcare professional for medical advice about any changes to your dose, especially if you have any new spotting or breakthrough bleeding so they can monitor and evaluate your condition. Tell your doctor if you start any new treatments and discuss if you need to use other non-hormonal backup birth control methods.
