Femasys has developed FemBloc as a first-in-class non-surgical, permanent female contraception solution performed in a medical office setting without anesthesia or implants.
FemBloc consists of a temporary biopolymer that initiates a wound healing response in the fallopian tubes to form a permanent closure with the patient’s own scar tissue. The biopolymer completely exits the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes naturally over time.
A positive safety profile was demonstrated in early clinical studies (n=183) with no reported serious or unanticipated adverse events.
FemBloc is designed to reduce cost to women and the healthcare system at large. FemBloc may offer an important alternative for those considering surgery or those who rely on other methods of birth control.
The on-going FemBloc clinical studies along with a Pivotal trial will establish safety and efficacy.

Femasys has expanded options for women with its commercially available product for diagnosis of infertility (FemVue® Saline-Air Device).
FemVue creates a natural saline and air (bubbles) contrast that is easy to detect with ultrasound to allow for evaluation of the fallopian tubes in a gynecologist’s office.
Safe alternative to existing x-ray procedure eliminating radiation exposure and allergy risk to contrast x-ray dye.
Allows for use of existing ultrasound equipment and eliminates patient referral to radiology.
Immediate results in the convenience of the patient’s own gynecologist’s office.
