Good morning, I use ginoring 1.10, I put the system in today, it fell out during intercourse for 5 hours, I read that I should buy a new one and put it in. Has contraception been preserved or should I additionally buy escapelle. Please answer urgently.

If you have received a prescription for Escapelle, apparently the doctor considered the situation to require the use of emergency contraception (which would be justified - weakening the effect of the basic contraception).
I have already received a prescription for escapelle after writing the situation of the case

The contraceptive effectiveness of Ginoring may be reduced because the system has been outside the vagina for more than 3 hours. You may consider taking Escapelle - the use of emergency contraception should be discussed with your gynaecologist ("the morning after pill" is available with a doctor's prescription). For the next 7 days, you should use additional methods of protection (condom). Putting on a new disc means starting a new cycle - the break should be done only after 3 weeks.
Information contained in the summary of product characteristics:
"If the patient suspects or is certain that Ginoring has been outside the vagina for more than 3 hours in the first or second week of use, contraceptive efficacy may be reduced. The patient should reinsert the vaginal therapeutic system as soon as possible. In addition, for the first 7 days of using Ginoring after reinsertion, barrier methods of contraception, such as a condom, should be used."

In case of any doubts, I encourage you to use the teleconsultation with a gynaecologist - the service is available on our website in the e-visit tab:
