Key features of the report:
- Tracks activity across Contraception, Fertility & Pregnancy, Sexual Health Problems, Intimate Care, Menstruation & more
- Highlights emerging trends and new developments across markets
- Tracks NPD and Rx-to-OTC switch activity
- Showcases the best promotional activity

SAMPLE VIEW
"Sexual Health & Fertility is one of the few CHC areas that still has significant switch
potential and a compelling argument that increased access to products can directly
benefit consumers who may be put off seeking help owing to embarrassment or
other barriers to access." Nicholas Hall writing last year in his Signature report, New Paradigms.
This exciting area of the consumer health field encompasses a wide range of products, from supplements
to diagnostic tools, apps to analgesics, and remains loaded with possibilities for expansion. Many categories
are still at the beginning of their OTC journeys and have the potential to build significant sales on the back
of consumer demand. This report will look at the opportunities & challenges for marketers, including case
studies, promotional strategies, NPD and forecasts.
Highlights include:
- Examining the established emergency hormonal contraception and more nascent erectile dysfunction categories and weighing the potential for Rx-to-OTC switch to drive further development
- Looking at key players in daily oral contraceptives and assessing the future of key markets like the UK (after two simultaneous and identical pill switches), USA (which saw its first OTC birth control pill switched in early 2024) and others
- Evaluating CHC solutions for menopause , an area traditionally dominated by supplements but expanding beyond, including the world's first OTC hormone replacement therapy for post-menopausal women in the UK
- Assessing how NPD is swelling the crowded pregnancy vitamins category, including options for male fertility and post-birth support
- Appraising marketer efforts to raise awareness and understanding of menstrual pain , and the campaigns and new products being launched to support this
- Studying how self-diagnostic kits are revolutionising the sexual health & fertility market, as devices such as at-home fertility tests (including saliva tests), STD tests and others like diagnostic tampons and menopause stage indicators become more commonplace
- Identifying opportunities to expand the small, niche market for premature ejaculation solutions, including the rollout of topical spray options
- Exploring how feminine intimate care is being boosted by educational and often taboo-busting A+P and launch activity including pre- and probiotic-enriched products to support natural vaginal flora
- Catching up with developments in the booming FemTech (female health technology) sector, which straddles an array of technologies focused on period care, fertility, pregnancy & childbirth, menopause and sexual health
