Listen Later

In today’s episode, I interview Kathy Lee-Sepsick CEO and founder of Femasys (NASDAQ FEMY). Femasys is a publicly-traded, biomedical company focused on transforming women’s healthcare with minimally invasive, non-surgical, in-office product technologies providing significant clinical impact to address severely underserved areas. Their product FemVue is available in the market to physicians to assess the Fallopian tubes via ultrasound since sometimes infertility is caused by blockages in the Fallopian tubes. Their other product candidates are FemBloc, a nonsurgical product for permanent birth control, and FemaSeed, a sperm delivery product for infertility treatment. Kathy founded Femasys in 2004 and continues to serve as the company's CEO even after it went public in June of this year. She holds over 100 patents globally for Femasys’ products and product candidates. Learn more at femasys.com.
