NUVARING STROKES
Nuvaring has been linked to an increased risk of blood clots and strokes. Unlike other methods of birth control Nuva ring is inserted by the woman once a month and delivers a constant flow of hormones to the woman’s body. The combination of these hormones, estrogen and synthetic desogestrel, have been known to increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, blood clots, venous thrombosis, and a number of other serious medical conditions.
Major Risks Of Nuvaring Strokes
One of the major risks for women using Nuvaring is the risk of suffering a stroke. The type of stroke Nuva ring may cause is called an Ischemic Stroke. Nuvaring ischemic strokes occur when a blood clot forms, breaks off, and travels to a major organ. Typically this includes the brain, lung, or heart. The clot then blocks blood flow (and ability for oxygen to travel) to the brain, causing a stroke.
Nuvaring strokes can cause a great deal of damage to the sufferer. Victims of stroke may have to undergo lengthy rehabilitation, miss weeks of work, and in the most severe cases may lose their lives. Ischemic strokes may also result in serious, life long, damage.
