The impact of combined contraceptive vaginal ring on vaginal environment: an observational, longitudinal study.
Purpose: To assess the relationship between combined contraceptive vaginal ring (CVR) and vaginal microbiome using 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
Materials and methods: We enrolled 20 women for 8 weeks in an open-label study using CVR (NuvaRing®) that delivered 15 mcg ethinylestradiol and 120 mcg etonogestrel daily. The vaginal microbiome was assessed at baseline and after 2 months by sequencing the 16S rRNA genes amplified from the total genomic DNA isolated from the sample.
Results: Bacterial distribution richness and equity did not significantly change after 2 months, and the dominant bacterial strain was Lactobacillus crispatus. Only one woman with a history of vestibulodynia and recurrent vulvovaginitis showed an increase in bacterial biodiversity, with a switch to the relative abundance of anaerobic bacteria.
Conclusions: Our results suggest that CVR does not adversely affect the composition and structure of the vaginal microbiome. However, special care should be taken in patients with a history of vestibulodynia and/or recurrent vulvovaginal infections.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
