Its more than 70,000 customers purchase pregnancy, ovulation, and UTI tests, as well as vitamins and supplements, through its e-commerce site. Stix has raised $7.6 million in funding since launching in 2019. Following the overturn of Roe v. Wade, Stix launched an over-the-counter emergency contraception product, Restart, and a donation bank to provide free doses to anyone who requests, which has raised nearly $300,000.
