Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Disclosed herein are intravaginal ring (IVR) devices comprising barriers that may be metal, polymeric or combinations of metal and polymeric. The IVRs are useful for contraception, treating and/or preventing sexually transmitted diseases, and treating and/or preventing bacterial infections. The IVR's are resistant to distortion due to absorption of vaginal fluids. This allows the IVRs to perform better over time as compared to other intravaginal rings made with copolymeric silicone.
