Proposed Infobox for individual birth control method articles

Let's all work on reaching a consensus for a new infobox to be placed on each individual birth control method's article. I've created one to start with on the Wikipedia Proposed Infoboxes page, so go check it out and get involved in the process. MamaGeek (Talk/Contrib) 12:24, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Image placement

I like the new images, but am concerned about where they have been put. On my monitor, the "Contents" box is now smushed between the birth control infobox and a picture, and the text of the "Methods of use" section is offset in an odd-looking way.

Any suggestions for moving the images to resolve especially the "Contents" box issue would be welcome. Lyrl ^Talk _Contribs 01:53, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Vaginal ring for HIV prevention

Some interesting research on the use of vaginal rings for HIV prevention has been appearing over the last year:

• Pebody, Roger (2 September 2016). "Vaginal ring for HIV prevention effective and acceptable". aidsmap.com. Retrieved 2017-12-28.
• "In adolescents, oral Truvada and vaginal ring for HIV prevention are safe, acceptable". National Institutes of Health (NIH). 2017-07-24. Retrieved 2017-12-28.
• Gallagher, James (2017-07-25). "HIV-prevention ring trial a success among US teens". BBC News. Retrieved 2017-12-28.
• Herbert, Tom (1 December 2017). "Secret vagina ring that helps protect women from getting HIV". Metro. Retrieved 2017-12-28.
• Pritchard, Charlotte (30 November 2017). "The secret ring helping women protect themselves from HIV". BBC News. Retrieved 2017-12-28.

We should have some coverage on this, either in this article, or elsewhere. -- The Anome (talk) 11:41, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

hm, 9 years later there is a separate article for the Dapivirine Ring but no text in this article about it. definitely needs a couple quick mentions and a see-also IMO.

Additionally, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estring redirects to plain estradiol, should it not redirect here? Postres (talk) 12:08, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
