Femasys Advances Global Growth with Second Partner Order for FemBloc® in Europe
-- Continued rollout of FemBloc, the breakthrough non-surgical permanent contraceptive solution, expands the Company’s presence in key European Markets --
ATLANTA, Nov. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NASDAQ: FEMY), a leading biomedical innovator making fertility and non-surgical permanent birth control more accessible and cost-effective to women worldwide, today announced a significant initial order valued at approximately $500,000 USD for the commercial launch of FemBloc Permanent Birth Control in France and the Benelux region through its partnership with leading distributor . Following the Company’s recent entry into Spain, this order marks continued progress in expanding FemBloc’s presence across key European markets and reflects growing international momentum for this innovative, non-surgical permanent contraceptive solution.
“Our selection of European partners, such as Kebomed, has been deliberate and strategic, ensuring both deep expertise in market access and a shared commitment to advancing women’s healthcare,” said Kathy Lee-Sepsick, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Femasys Inc. “The initial orders reflect confidence in FemBloc’s potential to transform reproductive health. With these partnerships driving our international expansion, Femasys is well positioned to create lasting impact for patients and long-term value for shareholders.”
"We are pleased to partner with Femasys to bring FemBloc to women in France and Benelux," said Søren Dalmark Kornerup, Chairman of Kebomed Europe AG. "For several years, there has been a void in permanent contraception options, with no new advancements to meet the clear demand from both women and physicians. FemBloc represents a revolutionary breakthrough that the market has been waiting for, and we are thrilled to be at the forefront of introducing this much-needed solution."
FemBloc is a first-of-its-kind, non-surgical solution for permanent birth control, addressing a significant unmet need in women’s reproductive health. It uses a patented delivery system to place a proprietary blended polymer into both fallopian tubes, which safely degrades and forms natural scar tissue for permanent occlusion. Unlike surgical sterilization, FemBloc requires no anesthesia, no incisions, and no recovery time, avoiding the risks of infection and other surgical complications while providing women a safer, more convenient, and affordable option. With no comparable alternatives on the market, FemBloc represents a disruptive advancement with broad global potential. Learn more at .
