LONDON, Jan. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Elvie, the health and lifestyle brand developing smarter technology for women, today at CES 2019 announced that it has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance to market its recently launched silent wearable breast pump in the United States. With the milestone, Elvie Pump will be available for purchase on Elvie.com on February 7.

Elvie Pump is a complete departure from existing pump technology, offering more freedom and mobility to expressing moms. The truly hands-free pump gives women the flexibility to go about their daily routine while pumping, whether at home, the office or traveling.

An accompanying app lets users monitor pumping progress and automatically pause pumping when the bottle is full.

"The FDA clearance is a significant milestone for Elvie, as well as mothers looking for a new breast pump designed for their modern lives. With nearly 6,000 people on the Elvie Pump waitlist in the U.S., we are confident there is a demand for innovation to outdated pumping technology," said Tania Boler, Founder and CEO of Elvie. "Elvie is focused on creating solutions to the issues that matter most to women, and we're excited to bring an entirely new pumping experience to moms across the United States."

Elvie Pump retails for $499 for a double unit and $279 for a single unit.
