Study Details
Testing FINALE a Permanent Birth Control
(IRB#: IRB_00168700)
This study is testing a permanent birth control called FemBloc. The treatment does not require surgery. The study wants to see if FemBloc will help people who do not wish to become pregnant now and in the future. People in the study will have a device with a small amount of the liquid study drug placed in the uterus (the organ between the hip bones where an unborn baby grows). Once the fluid is released the device is removed from the uterus. People in the study will attend both in-person visits at the study clinic and telehealth visits over a technology device such as a computer throughout 5 years. Medical tests will be done during the study to learn and track the health of participants.
