 The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is now accepting comments from the public regarding possible reclassification of female condoms from a Class III to a Class II device, which would be the same classification as male condoms.
Reclassifying female condoms from a Class III to a Class II medical device would likely open the U.S. market to new products and expand options for protection from sexually transmitted infections, including HIV, and unintended pregnancy.
Please consider voicing your support. You or your organization can sign on to the comments being submitted by the National Female Condom Coalition (NFCC), or you can use the template below to submit your own.
Share these resources with your personal and professional networks so we can send a strong, clear message to the FDA that the U.S. needs and wants more prevention options.
