The serious side effects of Nuvaring are becoming more apparent as more women
suffer from blood clots, strokes and pulmonary embolism while using Nuvaring birth control. Nuva ring and side effects such as a blood clot are also forcing women to rethink their birth control choices. Many women who had previously used Nuvaring and suffered Nuvaring related side effects have switched to an IUD which does not change the hormone levels.The main reason women are considering an intrauterine device (IUD) is because of the risk of using a third generation combination contraceptive that contains desogestrel. Multiple studies have shown that the risk of have a blood clot is double when compared to second generation contraception that contains norgestrel, levonorgestrel, norgestimate or norethindrone.
All third generation birth control such as Nuvaring contains a warning label regarding the risk of blood clots. The manufacturer has been well aware of these dangerous side effects of nuva ring.
Risk of developing blood clots:
Blood clots and blockage of blood vessels are one of the most serious side effects of taking oral contraceptives and can cause death or serious disability. In particular, a clot in the leg can cause thrombophlebitis and a clot that travels to the lungs can cause a sudden blockage of the vessel carrying blood to the lungs. The risks of these side effects may be greater with desogestrel-containing oral contraceptives, such as [brand name of drug] (desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol), than with certain other low-dose pills. Rarely, clots occur in the blood vessels of the eye and may cause blindness, double vision, or impaired vision.
