INGfertilityTM
designs and
commercializes products to
support fertility. We
are located in rural Valleyford, Washington
surrounded by trees and
wildlife.
Our mission is to provide
innovative, effective
products for
trying-to-conceive couples,
physicians and
veterinarians, in order to
optimize reproductive
outcomes.
The
company was founded by two
women reproductive
physiologists (Drs. Joanna
Ellington and Sylvia Adams
Oliver) in 1994. They have
spent over 10 years
developing patents on the
use of bioactive sugars
(often found in plants and
trees) to protect cells and
improve their function in a
variety of uses.
INGfertility’sTM products have
been designed in response to
the needs of
trying-to-conceive couples
as recognized by our team
during years of
federally
funded research in this
area.
INGfertilityTM
is majority family owned and
proud of it! Many of you
probably don’t know our
history, but when Dr. E
first brought Pre~Seed®
to market, INGfertilityTM
had funding from a venture
capital group. They liked
the product and Dr. E’s
patents, so much so that
they tried to steal the
technology from her. They
also thought they could
charge a LOT more for
Pre~Seed®,
than INGfertilityTM
was willing to charge. So
they dried up supplies to
see what people would be
willing to pay for a box.
Some of you may remember
those days back in 2003,
when a single box of
Pre~Seed went for $200 on
eBay!!!!!!! You can see the
news coverage of these crazy
times
here
and
here.
Luckily for all, the big
business guys failed and Dr.
E and her husband (“Dr. C”)
regained control of
INGfertilityTM.
Since that time INGfertilityTM
has opted for a slower
growth model based on the
evidence of science (as in
reports by independent
studies) and word-of-mouth
from our loyal users. This has allowed INGfertilityTM
to avoid being controlled by
large groups who might seek
to use our products to
exploit vulnerable
trying-to-conceive couples.
It also means that some
projects happen slower than
we would like.
