Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with follicular rupture delay

    Evaluate effective dose of maximum local safety that causes a greater proportion of follicular rupture delays when it is administered continuously, starting on the day 5 +/- 1 of the cycle until next menses.

    Participants will be followed for the duration of one menstrual cycle, an expected average of 28 days

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Pharmacokinetic of meloxicam via vaginal route: AUC

    An expected average of 28 days

  • Bleeding patterns with meloxicam vaginal ring

    one menstrual cycle

  • Pharmacokinetic of meloxicam via vaginal route: Tmax

    An expected average of 28 days

  • Pharmacokinetic of meloxicam via vaginal route: Cmax

    An expected average of 28 days
