NEW: dedicated Fertility Insights with every Evvy test ??? Groundbreaking research suggests that the vaginal microbiome plays a role in fertility—impacting everything from implantation to outcomes in IVF and IUI. Yet this information has never been widely accessible in fertility care… until now. ?? Starting today, all Evvy test results will include dedicated Fertility Insights, measuring four Microbiome Markers associated with fertility: ? Protective Score– The percent of protective bacteria. Research associates higher levels with positive fertility outcomes.1 ? Microbiome Diversity Score– How many different kinds of bacteria you have — research suggests fewer?is better. ? Fertility Disruptors– Checks for five bacteria: Fannyhassae, Gardnerella, Prevotella, Sneathia, and Ureaplasma. ? STI Screening (*add-on only) – Checks for 4 STIs: chlamydia, gonorrhea, Mycoplasma genitalium, and trich. With these insights, Evvy is bridging the gap between the latest research and real-world fertility care. ??

Excited to see our portfolio company, Evvy, continue to push the boundaries of women’s health with the launch of new fertility insights as part of their vaginal microbiome test. The new capabilities provide information on and address the connection between vaginal microbiome health and fertility outcomes, an area where research has shown significant correlations.? ? “For too long, fertility has been treated like a black box — leaving millions of people searching for answers with no clear path forward,” said Priyanka Jain, co-founder and CEO of Evvy. “By expanding our Vaginal Microbiome Test to include fertility insights, we’re giving people the power to take control of their reproductive health with comprehensive testing and data-driven, personalized care.” https://lnkd.in/ggMfkiqN

?? Evvy, the company focusing on closing the gender health gap through vaginal microbiome biomarkers, has expanded its flagship Vaginal Microbiome Test to include fertility insights. The new capabilities provide information on how the vaginal microbiome affects reproductive health. The update addresses the connection between vaginal microbiome health and fertility outcomes, an area where research has shown significant correlations. According to the company, one-third of all infertility cases are diagnosed as “unexplained,” and vaginal microbial imbalances have been linked to infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, and preterm birth. ?? ?? “For too long, fertility has been treated like a black box — leaving millions of people searching for answers with no clear path forward.

I'm pleased to announce the addition of David Lyttle, Ph.D., Senior Bioinformatics Scientist, Evvy, to the speaking faculty for the 10th Annual Translational Microbiome Conference (https://lnkd.in/dF9GD4m) on April 10-11, 2025 in Boston. In his presentation, Dr. Lyttle will provide insights from a large-scale study of microbial taxa and biochemical pathways. Vaginitis affects up to 30% of women globally and is a leading cause of gynecological visits, with vaginal odor being the most frequently reported and distressing symptom. Despite its prevalence, the microbial and biochemical mechanisms driving odor remain poorly understood, limiting therapeutic advances. Evvy's latest research analyzed patient-reported data and shotgun metagenomic sequencing from 6,585 non-menopausal individuals, identifying seven bacterial taxa linked to odor severity. We also uncovered a significant association between the putrescine pathway and severe odor cases. These findings pave the way for translating metagenomic insights into clinical tools for precision diagnostics and targeted treatments in vaginal health. Join us at this year's event, where our speakers from both academia and industry will be sharing cutting-edge microbiome research.

Thank you to Ali Donaldson for writing this piece shedding a light on Evvy and other femtech leaders navigating the evolving landscape of women’s health. As I shared in the article, patient needs don’t disappear just because an administration pretends they don’t exist. If anything, increasing gaps in access and reliable information only make our work at Evvy more critical. This moment presents both a challenge and an opportunity. The challenge? An uphill battle against misinformation, restrictions, and a strained healthcare system. The opportunity? A growing urgency for patient-driven, science-backed solutions that meet women where they are. As founders, we’re not waiting for permission to build the future of healthcare that women deserve. ??
