Contraline
Contraline is a Virginia-based biotech startup that specializes in male contraception technology. The company has developed a non-surgical, long-lasting contraceptive method called Vasintomy, which involves a minimally invasive procedure for inserting a polymer gel into the vas deferens to block the flow of sperm. Contraline's technology aims to offer a reversible, non-hormonal option for men who want to avoid unwanted pregnancies. The company has conducted successful animal trials and is progressing towards clinical trials with the goal of gaining FDA approval.
