Do you have a history of bacterial vaginosis (BV) and an interest in using NuvaRing?

We are looking for volunteers to participate in a research study to see how the use of a contraceptive vaginal ring (NuvaRing) affects the bacteria that live in the vagina.

You may be eligible to participate if you:

• Are a female aged 18 or older
• Currently have BV or have had BV in the past year
• Are interested in using the NuvaRing

Study participation will last seven months and involves 8 to 9 clinic visits. You will be asked to collect daily vaginal swabs at home at 3 different times during the study. You will be given NuvaRing to use, and will receive free testing and treatment for BV, herpes and other STIs. Participants are paid for each completed clinic visit and for samples collected at home. You will receive up to $559 compensation for study completion.
