Ovaprene: Non-hormonal Vaginal Disk Birth Control Study
Primary Objective
Clinical trial looking at a monthly, non-hormonal vaginal product as birth control.
Description
Clinical trial looking at a monthly, non-hormonal vaginal product as birth control. The vaginal product, called Ovaprene, is a round piece of woven material surrounded by a soft, flexible rubber ring. The material in the vaginal product is released slowly to create an environment that makes it difficult for sperm to be mobile. The ring is ferrous gluconate (a type of iron), Vitamin C, glycine and polyglycolide. This product is designed to provide continuous birth control and is changed monthly. Ovaprene is an experimental device which means that it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Main Procedures Involved: You and your partner would rely on the vaginal product as your only method of contraception. You will complete 8 in-person visits and 2 phone calls. During the in-person visits, you will complete physical exams and laboratory tests. You will also be asked to complete a daily diary in which you will answer a couple very quick questions.
Duration of Participation: Up to 13.5 months
