Femasys Secures Distribution Partnerships for Commercialization of FemBloc® in Spain

-- Company taps first EU distributors, Comercial Medico Quirurigca, SA and Durgalab, as the first globally to be granted rights to commercialize FemBloc® -- ATLANTA, March 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Femasys Inc., (Nasdaq: FEMY), a leading biomedical innovator addressing significant unmet needs in women's health worldwide, with a broad portfolio of disruptive, accessible, in-office therapeutic and diagnostic products, announces the Company has secured strategic distribution partnerships for FemBloc® in Spain. Comercial Medico Quirurigca, SA (CMQ) will expand its commercial portfolio to include FemBloc, alongside other Femasys products in northern Spain, while Durgalab will handle distribution in the southern region. Kathy-Lee Sepsick, Femasys CEO and Founder commented, “Today’s announcement marks a significant milestone in our mission to bring innovative technologies to women worldwide, as we expand globally with the first introduction of FemBloc through our partnerships in Spain. Our distribution partners bring extensive expertise in women’s healthcare, having previously represented the Conceptus Essure product (acquired by Bayer). Their experience in commercializing a complex product, which was ultimately withdrawn from all markets, positions them well to effectively market FemBloc as a new advancement for non-surgical permanent birth control.” About FemBlocFemBloc® permanent birth control is a revolutionary first-of-its-kind non-surgical approach, that involves minimally-invasive placement of a patented delivery system for precise delivery of our proprietary synthetic tissue adhesive (blended polymer) into both fallopian tubes simultaneously. Over time, the blended polymer fully degrades and produces nonfunctional scar tissue to permanently block the fallopian tubes in the safest most natural approach. This is in stark contrast to centuries-old surgical sterilization with reported risks that include infection, minor or major bleeding, injury to nearby organs, anesthesia-related events, and even death. Along with the various surgical risks, some patients may not qualify as good surgical candidates due to obesity or medical comorbidities. The FemBloc non-surgical approach has the potential to offer a safer, more accessible in-office alternative with fewer risks, contraindications, and substantially lower cost.
