Dare Ovaprene Study
The Women’s Health Clinical Research Center at Penn Medicine is conducting a paid clinical research study looking at Ovaprene as a possible monthly non-hormonal intravaginal product.
All study participants will receive the investigational non-hormonal (Ovaprene) for 12 months. Participants would come to regular study visits for those 12 months, and be willing to rely on Ovaprene as their only method of birth control. At the visits you will receive gynecological exams, laboratory assessments, we will ask you questions about your heath and complete surveys. You will also complete an eDiary during the study; there is an app to use for the eDiary. Total compensation for completion of all parts of the study is $1,614.
