Local healthcare firm wins FDA approval for conception kit

In the latest breakthrough for West Michigan's biotech sector, Conceivex has secured FDA approval for a first-of-its-kind conception kit that aims to increase a couple's chance of having a baby. Put simply, the kit uses a combination of various methods to increase the opportunity for male sperm to fertilize the female egg. The in-home kit does not rely on costly drugs or medical procedures.

"For many couples facing fertility issues, the stress and anxiety
associated with lengthy treatments and failed attempts can be overwhelming," said Dr. Charles Barker, a board certified family physician and Conceivex advisor.

"The Conception Kit is designed to put couples back in control of their family planning by empowering them with valuable tools, information that is easy to understand, and a straight forward step-by-step process that enhances their chance of becoming pregnant, all in the privacy of their own home."

Conceivex is a privately held healthcare company based in Saranac, MI. The company's mission is to empower women and couples to achieve their reproductive goals. One in eight American couples experience difficulty conceiving, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
