FERTI·LILY: hormone-free conception cup increases the chances of getting pregnant by 48%

Founded in 2018, FERTI·LILY is the innovative offspring of a collaboration between a medical entrepreneur, who experienced first-hand the frustrations of (not) conceiving, and one of Europe’s leading fertility specialists.

“With FERTI·LILY, we want to empower women and couples on their journey by providing support that requires no hormones, doctors, or invasive procedures, preserving the intimacy and excitement of this very special moment. Our company motto is – a little help, making a little miracle,” shares Robert Stal, founder, and CEO of FERTI·LILY.

This is how the cup works: inserted after intercourse the cup pushes and holds the sperm closer to the cervix allowing 300 per cent more sperm cells to swim through the cervix.

The cost of the FERTI·LILY Cup is also not to be dismissed in comparison to the staggering cost of fertility treatments – £33 and reusable for six months.

The second challenge the company decided to tackle is vaginal dryness which, according to one of the industry studies, occurs two times more for women who are trying to conceive than the general population.

“Few people know that, but standard lubricants can negatively affect fertility by creating a barrier for sperm. That’s why we developed the FERTI·LILY Conception Gel, a clinically proven sperm-friendly lubricant that helps couples make this journey more pleasurable and mimics the properties of fertile fluids allowing sperm cells to survive and migrate,” adds Stal.

 

FERTI·LILY’s clinical study about the efficacy of its cup has been published in the JPBNC (Journal of Pregnancy and Newborn Care) and has been a game-changer for the company.

The JPBNC is an open-access peer-reviewed journal based in the US known for publishing original and scientifically relevant articles for gynaecologists and other fertility specialists. Read the full article about the clinical study here: link to JPBNC

With the support of Dr Grada van den Dool, chairwoman of the Association of Fertility Doctors in the Netherlands, and Dr Maarten Wiegerinck, one of Europe’s leading fertility specialists, a prospective study involving 85 women showed that the use of the FERTI·LILY cup for three cycles significantly increased pregnancy rates.

The study results showed that by using the conception cup, the chances of getting pregnant are 48 per cent higher than expected when compared to industry standard prognostic models.

“Results were even better for couples trying to conceive for over a year, who would be considered clinically infertile,” highlights Stal.
