The Stork: A Next-Step Home Option For Couples Struggling to Conceive

thestork1For me and my husband starting a family was easy. We tried once, and a month later I was pregnant with our now, 2-year-old daughter, Ava. Unfortunately, this is not the case for millions of Canadian couples hoping to start a family. Today 1 in 6 Canadian couples have difficulty conceiving. 

From tracking ovulation to rushing home to ‘make a baby’ couples try for years to conceive naturally. The struggle is emotionally straining on both partners and that joy of trying for a baby is lost. Many couples hesitate to take another step because the process of seeking help can be daunting. Treatments like Artificial Insemenation and IVF are extremely costly, invasive and not natural (drugs/chemicals). 

That’s why I was excited to learn about a revolutionary new product that is being offered in Canada to help couples struggling to conceive naturally.  

Rinovum, a privately-held women’s health company has created The Stork, a FDA-cleared product that aids in natural fertility and conception. It offer couples who are struggling to conceive with a “next-step” treatment option that is not only cost-effective, but done in the privacy of your own home. No prescription is required either.  

How it works

The system was developed to aid assisted insemination in instances where low sperm count, sperm immobility, or hostile vaginal environment has been diagnosed. The Stork‘s cervical cap in a condom-like silicone sheath (latex-free) is used to collect semen into a cervical cap, and then deliver the cap to the outside of the cervix as an aid to conception. Basically, The Stork increases the volume of sperm at the cervical opening to aid in conception. 

It is best to use The Stork with an ovulation tracker because it will ensure you’re as close as possible to your ovulation cycle.  It should be used no more than three times per month. If you haven’t been successful conceived within six months of using The Stork it is time to see physician.

Benefits of The Stork:

• Proven technique: There have been more than 30 studies in medical journals on cervical cap insemination that show the success rate equivalent to IUI (10-20% success rate). 
• Safe: FDA approved
• Natural: Drug-free product that requires no drugs
• Non-invasive: Requires no injections or surgery
• Easy –to-Use: Condom-like in collection, tampon-like in delivery
• Cost-effective: Compared to “next-step” treatment options
