Our first product, Milli™, is vaginal dilator to support patients suffering from vaginismus and related painful sex. In 2019, the Milli device launched as a wellness trainer and, in 2023, received FDA clearance to sell over the counter, enabling streamlined access to people suffering from vaginismus. Milli outcomes have been studied in a post-market prospective virtual study named POMPOM.
Materna’s second product, Ellora™, is an investigational device used during labor and is intended to reduce pelvic floor muscle injury during vaginal delivery. This product is being studied in the EASE trial, a large, randomized controlled trial in 20 top US hospitals. Materna aims to transform the standard of care in labor and delivery by protecting pelvic floor health for moms.
