While using NuvaRing, avoid using oil-based xxxx products, such as certain creams or suppositories, as they can weaken the ring and make it less effective. Also, avoid smoking, especially if you are over 35, as it increases the risk of serious side effects like blood clots. Always inform your healthcare provider about any other medications you are taking, as some may reduce the effectiveness of NuvaRing.
