What can I do to lower my chances of getting a serious side effect with ESTRING?

What can I do to lower my chances of getting a serious side effect with ESTRING?

•
Follow carefully the instructions for use.
•
Talk with your healthcare provider regularly about whether you should continue using ESTRING.
•
See your healthcare provider right away if you get vaginal bleeding while using ESTRING.
•
If you have fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle pain, dizziness, faintness, or a sunburn-like rash on face and body, remove ESTRING and contact your healthcare provider.
•
Contact your healthcare provider if you have difficulty removing the vaginal ring.
•
Have a breast exam and mammogram (breast X-ray) every year unless your healthcare provider tells you something else. If members of your family have had breast cancer or if you have ever had breast lumps or an abnormal mammogram, you may need to have breast examinations more often.
•
If you have high blood pressure, high cholesterol (fat in the blood), diabetes, are overweight, or if you use tobacco, you may have higher chances for getting heart disease. Ask your healthcare provider for ways to lower your chances for getting heart disease.
