Founded by a professor at the Eshelman School of Pharmacy at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and a graduate student from the chemistry department, AnelleO Inc is developing Anelleo PRO. Holding the licence to the technology developed at the UNC, the device is the first 3D printed intravaginal ring to treat a womens health condition. AnelleO PRO is a once-a-month progesterone-releasing ring for infertility and assisted reproductive technology. Current products approved for progesterone supplementation are limited to messy and unpleasant vaginal gels or inserts and painful IM injections that have to be administered daily. Designed safely and steadily to release progesterone over an extended duration, AnelleO PRO could potentially replace current therapies and impact more than 1.5 million women.
