Women use various types of birth control for their reproductive health and to responsibly plan their pregnancies. Drug makers have been trying for years to improve the traditional pills and believed they finally hit on a solution with the advent of low-dose estrogen products, such as NuvaRing. Now the serious NuvaRing side effects, such as the greater risk of developing a blood clot, are leading patients and their families to a law firm to file NuvaRing class action lawsuits.
Most of the birth control products used by women today include estrogen. The presence of the estrogen in the woman’s body can prevent pregnancy by fooling it into believing conception has already taken place. However, some women had problems using traditional pills so a low-dose estrogen product was released. Now that product may be the subject of NuvaRing class action lawsuits because it can lead to death and other serious complications whose risks may have been minimized by the product’s warning labels.
The main issue is the NuvaRing side effects. Although the product can lead to many relatively benign problems such as headaches and upper respiratory infections, the biggest risk is the blood clot. Because the clot could develop and end up blocking the blood flow to the brain or heart resulting in paralysis, blindness, or sudden death, at least one law firm has considered filing NuvaRing class action lawsuits against the product’s manufacturer in order to help the patients and their families, as well as to bring more attention to this problem.
One area of contention is the warning labels about NuvaRing side effects. They do mention the risk of blood clot development but seem to minimize that risk. Although several separate studies have shown a significant increase in the risk when the hormone desogestrel (one of NuvaRing’s active ingredients) is used in birth control, the warnings to doctors and to patients claim that the increased risk of these problems with NuvaRing is not known.
Unfortunately, many women and their families have found out the hard way that NuvaRing side effects can be quite severe and can even cost them their lives. In Colorado, for example, one woman’s 23 year old sister died from a pulmonary embolism after she had been using the product. Neither she nor her family knew about this increased risk. Others like her are beginning to seek out a law firm to help them file NuvaRing class action lawsuits which can, hopefully, get the dangerous birth control off the market.
