Copper vaginal ring for birth control
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new soft ring that is placed inside the vagina to prevent pregnancy. The ring releases copper, a natural spermicide. You will be asked to use the ring for a period of time and have regular check-ups to see if it is safe and works well.
