NuvaRing
(etonogestrel/ethinyl estradiol)
NUVARING BIRTH CONTROL Reports reveal that the components found in NuvaRing (etonogestrel/ethinyl estradiol), estrogen and progesterone, have been linked to serious side effects of: NuvaRing (www.nuvaring.com) is still on the market and prescribed by doctors and clinics to prevent pregnancy. We are prosecuting these cases for our birth control clients who developed these serious effects while using the vaginal ring. Because the hormones in the vaginal ring are processed by the body differently than hormones from birth control pills, women will be exposed to more estrogen than if they were using typical birth control pills containing 35 micrograms of estrogen. Many women were not adequately warned of the serious side effects linked to the use of NuvaRing as the product was sold and marketed to U.S. consumers. These types of serious health risks had been researched and and reported for several years, yet the product marketing and warnings remained unchanged. Lawsuits have been filed and Multi District Litigation to compensate women has begun.
