Objectives: Ovaprene is a novel, investigational, intravaginal hormone-free monthly ring contraceptive designed for use in women of reproductive age to be worn over multiple weeks (one menstrual cycle). The objective of this work was to evaluate the safety of Ovaprene during a nine-month repeat-dose sheep study.
Study Design: In addition to traditional safety endpoints such as histopathological evaluation of the sheep female reproductive tract, vaginal fluids were collected and tested for released iron over time.
