Transcervical Reversible Female Contraception

Sujoy Guha of the Indian Institute of Technology in India will test a new transcervical contraceptive made from a polymer compound for its ability to incapacitate both sperm and ovum. The novel compound is delivered to the fallopian tubes in liquid form, changed to a semi-solid form with an external application of radio frequency, and can be flushed out for fast and complete reversibility.
