History

According to the company's own account, Minerva Surgical began one evening in 2008, after the acquisition of endometrial ablation innovator Novacept in 2004, when a team of women's health veterans sketched a new and improved device on a paper napkin. Seven years later, Minerva ES was approved by the FDA. The company states that since launching Minerva ES in 2015 it learned about the impact of AUB on women, and that in 2020 it acquired three additional devices for the treatment of AUB, creating a complete intrauterine care kit. On January 30, 2026, Axora Medical purchased the business assets of Minerva Surgical; Minerva Surgical team members became employees of Axora Medical, and the company stated that its business priorities and day-to-day operations would remain unchanged at that time.
