NEW
YORK, July 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Legacy,
North America's #1 digital
fertility clinic for men, has released a new version of its
groundbreaking at-home sperm testing and freezing kit. The kit's
enhanced features improve its accuracy, security and ease of use,
taking Legacy's revolutionary service — the ability for men to test
and preserve their fertility from the comfort of home — to the next
level.
Features of the new kit include:
- A conical sample collection cup. The first-of-its kind,
patent-pending design allows for more accurate semen volume
reporting in a sterile and secure environment. It was designed by
the Legacy team based on feedback from thousands of clients.
- Enhanced insulation and cooling packs, which provide
comprehensive temperature regulation, ensuring semen samples arrive
at one of Legacy's andrology labs for evaluation with minimal
exposure to outside temperatures. The kit underwent testing in
temperature-controlled chambers simulating environmental exposures
of up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit (~50 degrees Celsius).
- A padlock seal, which provides an additional layer of
tamper-proof security above and beyond the previous kit's
tamper-evident tape.
- Improved transportation resilience. The redesigned kit
has been subjected to rigorous testing, confirming its ability to
handle the roughest shipping conditions, including external shocks,
drops, falls, and extreme variations in temperature.
Clients have overwhelmingly praised Legacy's previous kit for
its convenience and ease of use. To maintain the company's
commitment to five-star customer service — Legacy has a 4.9-star
average on Google reviews — its operations team continuously
identifies areas for improvement.
"Legacy has always had the safest mail-in kit on the market,"
says CEO Khaled Kteily. "And two
years in the making – it's now even better. We're always
challenging ourselves to improve our products and upgrade the
client experience. Our mission is to make sperm testing and
freezing more accessible and frictionless for everyone, and our new
kit reflects our constant pursuit of that goal."
Dr. Paul Simon, Legacy's head of
operations, notes the new kit's development was a years-long
process that included product design and iteration, temperature
control testing, shipping simulations, and an overhaul of the
end-to-end client experience, including kit registration and
utilization.
