This is super interesting new technology. I'm very curious to learn more of the science behind it and know how well it would work in humans specifically during the fertile phase.

My big question regards how fertile cervical fluid wouldn't basically deactivate this (since it works to dissolve the non fertile mucus), but if it works during the fertile phase this would be such a great non-hormonal option!

Awesome to see a prospective efficacy trial for natural cycles! I haven't read the study yet so not sure of all the parameters that the participants were within, and the efficacy did decrease some from the retrospective study, but I love that the science is getting better!
