Measure
TDF Intravaginal Ring
TDF Intravaginal Ring (TDF-IVR) The TDF (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) IVR (intravaginal ring) has an inner core compartment comprised of 86% w/w (weight by weight) TDF and 14% w/w sodium chloride (NaCl). The TDF intravaginal ring will be worn continuously for 14 days. It will be inserted into the vagina following cessation of participant's menses at Visit 3 and removed at Visit 7.
Placebo Intravaginal Ring
Placebo Intravaginal Ring (Placebo IVR) The placebo intravaginal ring (IVR) has an inner core which contains sodium chloride (NaCl). The intravaginal ring will be worn continuously for 14 days. It will be inserted into the vagina following cessation of participant's menses at Visit 3 and removed at Visit 7.
