MEDFORD, Mass., Nov. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- INVO Bioscience, Inc. (OTC: IVOB), a medical device company granted FDA clearance for the first Intravaginal Culture System, INVOcell™, today announced that the Fertility Partnership of St. Louis, one of the region's leading centers, has added INVOcell to the procedures it utilizes to help its patients achieve pregnancies where traditional reproductive services have succeeded.
Dr. Elan Simckes, founder of the Fertility Partnership, said, "We are pleased to add INVOcell to our palette of reproductive services. INVOcell fits right in with our mission of helping our patients achieve the pregnancies that they passionately desire utilizing a streamlined process that can be done in a very cost-effective manner. We look forward to working with the INVO Bioscience team for many years to come in helping us honor the Fertility Partnership pledge to our patients."
INVOcell is a patented medical device used in the treatment of infertility that enables egg fertilization and early embryo development to take place in the woman's body, in vivo. The INVO Solution allows women to incubate their own gametes, providing a psychological benefit while reducing the risk of wrong embryo transfer. Utilizing a mild stimulation protocol, it decreases the number of oocytes required, which may reduce the risk of severe ovarian hyperstimulation (OHSS), reduce the risk of multiple births, and/or reduce the need for embryo cryopreservation and storage. As a lower cost option to traditional IVF, INVOcell expands access to patients who otherwise cannot afford the traditional method or would prefer for a more natural, cultural, or religious appropriate choice.
