Why Is There Irritation On Penis When Partner Uses Nuvaring ?
Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to health care magic. I read and understand your concern. I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern. Nuvaring is the contraceptive method used by the female. It contains the female hormone estrogen. This will not allow ovulation and makes the sperm more difficult to penetrate. There are some side effects to its use. Some irritation noted to partner also. The reason for your irritation is likely to be allergic reaction. The treatment for this problem is you can change the contraceptive to other methods. You can use condon or oral contraceptives. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun. Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist, HCM
