CONT

L'étude a montré qu'une fois que l'emploi de l'anneau vaginal avait été correctement expliqué sa popularité était plus grande que celle de toute autre méthode contraceptive essayée auparavant par les utilisatrices.

CONT

Un anneau intravaginal de polysiloxane, imprégné de progestatifs [...] libère l'hormone à un taux beaucoup plus faible que les pilules combinées. La femme peut le placer elle-même [...] Le début des règles se charge d'indiquer qu'il est temps de le retirer. La femme l'enlève alors pour cinq jours, puis le remet en place.
