DIY Artificial Insemination Kit for $129 Just Got Cleared by the FDA

For many struggling to conceive, an early line of treatment is artificial insemination, a procedure that can cost up to $1,000 and isn’t always covered by insurance. But before taking that step, the startup Mosie Baby wants couples to try it at home, for $129.

The DIY kit now also comes with the US Food and Drug Administration’s stamp of approval. The Austin-based company Wednesday said it’s the first at-home kit cleared by the agency for intravaginal insemination.
