Introduction

This contraceptive gel, called "Vasalgel", was developed by a non-profit organization and contains no hormones. It has been successfully tested on animals and has been tested on humans since 2016.

The contraceptive gel is expected to be approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and will be available as soon as 2018. ^[1]
