Cosa fa YourChoice Therapeutics

YourChoice Therapeutics is revolutionizing the global contraceptive market. Our vision is to develop non-hormonal contraceptives to provide both women and men with birth control options that lack the associated risks of hormone-based options but are equally effective. Traditionally, it has been the women’s financial and health burden to have a contraceptive in place. Our first goal is therefore to bring a novel non-hormonal, on-demand and low cost female contraceptive to the market that will substantially improve their quality of life and well-being. Our second goal is to develop the first ever non-surgical and highly effective non-hormonal contraceptive for men. Currently, male contraception is limited to two main options - vasectomy or condoms. Having such options available to both women and men will globally allow for much better family planning, reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies including abortions and therefore reduce costs and ensure contraceptive health and well-being.

Non-hormonal contraceptives for women and men

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are developing non-hormonal contraceptives that provide on-demand birth control for women and, eventually, men. Our first product is a low-cost, non-hormonal contraceptive that avoids the health risks of hormone-based options and can improve quality of life. Down the line, we're making a non-surgical male contraceptive that offers an alternative to vasectomy and condoms, expanding family planning options globally.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We currently live and work in Berkeley, CA, and would be based there after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are based in Berkeley because it is close to our scientific and research networks, and it is conducive to our biotech and health tech work. Staying here allows us to maintain our progress without relocation distractions.
