"Jack Fertility, an Oxford-based men's healthtech startup, has raised more than £500,000 in pre-seed funding to launch Snip Check, the UK's first home-to-lab postal vasectomy test kit, and accelerate development of its broader range of male reproductive health solutions. The round was led by Fuel Ventures, with participation from Microsoft angels, Alma Angels, The Beam Network, Moonstone Venture Capital, FemTech Lab, Founders Factory's Reckitt Benkiser Accelerator, and the Oxford Seed Fund."
"Jack Fertility aims to normalise sperm testing and make male reproductive health accessible, private, and stigma-free. The company's first product, Snip Check, tackles a long-overlooked issue in post-vasectomy care. Research suggests that over 40% of men skip vital follow-up appointments due to embarrassment or the inconvenience of returning to a clinic. Jack Fertility's at-home postal kit enables men to discreetly confirm the success of their vasectomy using a Royal Mail postbox and receive clinic-grade results from the company's Oxford laboratory."
