                     Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
                                  June 30, 1997
                                   (Unaudited)


1.  Basis of presentation

     The  accompanying  unaudited  financial  statements  of  FemRx,  Inc.  (the
"Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting
principles for interim financial  information and with the instructions for Form
10-Q and  Article  10 of  Regulation  S-X.  In the  opinion  of  management  all
adjustments  necessary  to present  fairly the  financial  position,  results of
operations,  and cash flows at June 30, 1997, and 1996, have been made. Although
the Company  believes that the  disclosures  in these  financial  statements are
adequate to make the information  presented not misleading,  certain information
normally included in financial  statements and related  footnotes  prepared have
been  condensed  or  omitted  pursuant  to  the  rules  and  regulations  of the
Securities and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC").  The  accompanying  financial data
should be reviewed in  conjunction  with the audited  financial  statements  and
notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders,  and Form
10-K filed with the SEC (File No 000-28078) on March 26, 1997.

     The results of  operations  for the six months  ended June 30, 1997 are not
necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 1997.

2.  Net loss per share

     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 128,  Earnings  per Share,  which is required to be adopted on December  31,
1997. At that time, the Company will be required to change the method  currently
used to compute  earnings per share and to restate all prior periods.  Under the
new requirements for calculating primary earnings per share, the dilutive effect
of stock  options will be excluded.  The impact of Statement  128 is expected to
result in no change to the Company's  net loss per share for the quarters  ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996,  as stock  options have been  excluded  from the current
computation as they are anti-dilutive.

000-28078) on March 26, 1997.

     Except for the  historical  information  contained  herein,  the  following
discussion   contains   forward-looking   statements   that  involve  risks  and
uncertainties.  The Company's actual results could differ  materially from those
discussed  here.  Factors  that could cause or  contribute  to such  differences
include,  but are not limited to, those discussed in this section, as well as in
the sections  entitled  Overview,  Results of Operations,  Liquidity and Capital
Resources,  and  Additional  Factors That May Effect Future  Results,  and those
discussed in the Company's  Annual Report to  Stockholders,  and Form 10-K filed
with the SEC (File No 000-28078) on March 26, 1997.

Overview

     Since its inception, the Company has been engaged in the development of its
OPERA STAR  System and related  products,  establishment  of its  administrative
offices,  development of its sales and marketing  organization and establishment
of its  manufacturing  capabilities.  The OPERA  STAR  System  is an  innovative
surgical system for the diagnosis and treatment of gynecologic disorders.  OPERA
stands for Out-Patient Endometrial Resection/Ablation.  OPERA is a less invasive
alternative  to  hysterectomy  for  patients  suffering  from  abnormal  uterine
bleeding.  OPERA  consists of diagnosis by a gynecologic  surgeon and the use of
the  Company's  OPERA  STAR  resectoscope  under  visual  guidance  to collect a
pathology  sample,  resect the  endometrial  lining together with any submucosal
fibroids and coagulate the entire uterine cavity. The Company has also developed
a proprietary fluid management  system,  called the Flo-Stat System,  for use in
gynecologic procedures.

     The Company has launched its Center of Excellence  marketing program.  This
program  provides a hospital or surgical  center with an OPERA STAR System and a
Flo-Stat  System  which  allow  gynecologic  surgeons  at a hospital or surgical
center to perform the OPERA procedure.  As part of this program, the hospital or
surgical center purchases an initial stocking order of disposable resectoscopes.
The  Company  has  deferred  from  revenue the  estimated  number of  disposable
resectoscopes  that  would not be used in the  period.  The  revenue  from these
disposable  resectoscopes  will be  recognized  over their  estimated  period of
usage.

     The Company has experienced  significant  operating  losses since inception
and, as of June 30, 1997,  had an  accumulated  deficit of  approximately  $17.6
million.  The Company expects to continue to generate  substantial losses due to
increased   operating   expenditures   primarily   attributed  to  research  and
development activities, including clinical trials, and development of commercial
manufacturing,  marketing and sales  capabilities.  The Company anticipates that
its research and  development  expenses  will  increase in the future to support
increased product  development  activities,  including clinical trials, and that
its selling,  general and administrative expenses will increase due to increased
marketing  and  sales  activities.  The  Company  expects  that its  results  of
operations will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter due to a variety
of factors including the timing of such  expenditures,  timing in the receipt of
orders,  the rate of acceptance of the  Company's  products in the  marketplace,
introduction  of  new  products  by  competitors  of  the  Company,  pricing  of
competitive  products  and the cost and  effect  of  promotional  discounts  and
marketing  programs.  The Company's gross margins, if any, will be depressed for
several quarters due to manufacturing start-up and overhead costs allocated over
low  production  volumes.  There can be no assurance  that the Company will ever
achieve significant revenue or profitability.

Results of Operations

     Three months ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996

     Net Sales were  $403,000 for the three  months ended June 30, 1997.  No net
sales were recorded in the three months ended June 30, 1996.

     Cost of goods sold was  $796,000  for the three months ended June 30, 1997,
primarily  consisting  of costs related to initial  manufacturing.  There was no
cost of goods sold in the three months ended June 30, 1996.

     Research and development  expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1997
decreased to $872,000 from  $1,336,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996,
due primarily to costs  associated with start-up  manufacturing  incurred during
the three months ended June 30, 1996.

     Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  for the three months ended
June 30, 1997  increased to $1,808,000  from $941,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1996, due primarily to the establishment of the Company's marketing and
sales organization, including the hiring of additional personnel.

     Interest  income for the three  months  ended June 30,  1997  decreased  to
$218,000 from $341,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, due to interest
received on lower average cash balances.

     Six months ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996

     Net Sales were  $483,000  for the six months  ended June 30,  1997.  No net
sales were recorded in the six months ended June 30, 1996.

     Cost of goods sold was  $1,370,000  for the six months ended June 30, 1997,
primarily  consisting  of costs related to initial  manufacturing.  There was no
cost of goods sold in the six months ended June 30, 1996.

     Research  and  development  expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997
decreased to $1,578,000  from $2,329,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996,
due primarily to costs  associated with start-up  manufacturing  incurred during
the six months ended June 30, 1996.

     Selling,  general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June
30, 1997 increased to $3,362,000  from  $1,513,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1996,  due primarily to the  establishment  of the  Company's  marketing and
sales organization, including the hiring of additional personnel.

     Interest  income  for the six  months  ended  June 30,  1997  increased  to
$472,000 from  $374,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996,  due to interest
received on higher cash  balances  from the  proceeds  of the  Company's  public
offering on March 27, 1996.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Net cash used by  operations  in the six  months  ended  June 30,  1997 was
$5,054,000  primarily  due to the  Company's  funding  of  increased  sales  and
marketing  activity and on-going research and development  expenses.  During the
first six months of 1997 the Company  used  $469,000 to purchase  equipment  for
operations.

     The Company believes that its existing cash and short term investments will
be sufficient to finance its capital  requirements through at least fiscal 1997.
The Company's future liquidity and capital  requirements will depend on numerous
factors,  including the resources  necessary to develop,  manufacture and market
products  and the cost of 

                                       8
<PAGE>

obtaining  and  enforcing  patents  important  to the Company's  business.  The
Company may be  required  to raise  additional  funds through  public  or 
private  financing,  collaborative  relationships  or other arrangements. There
can be no assurance that such additional funding, if needed, will be available
on attractive terms to the Company, or at all.


Additional Factors That May Affect Future Results

     Dependence on OPERA STAR System and Flo-Stat System

     The OPERA STAR System and Flo-Stat  System are currently the Company's only
products.  The  Company  expects  that the OPERA  STAR  System,  and to a lesser
extent, the Flo-Stat System, will account for substantially all of the Company's
revenues  for the  foreseeable  future.  Even  though the OPERA STAR  System and
Flo-Stat System have received FDA clearance,  there can be no assurance that the
Company  can  successfully  manufacture,  market,  or  realize  any  significant
revenues  from these  products on a timely basis.  The  Company's  products will
require further  development and regulatory  clearances or approvals before they
can be marketed  internationally.  There can be no assurance  that the Company's
development  and  marketing  efforts will be  successful  or that the OPERA STAR
System,  Flo-Stat  System or other potential  products  developed by the Company
will be capable of being  manufactured  in  commercial  quantities at acceptable
costs.  Failure to manufacture in commercial  quantities at acceptable  cost the
OPERA STAR System and Flo-Stat  System would have a material  adverse  effect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

     Uncertainty of Market Acceptance

     The Company believes that market acceptance of the Company's  products will
depend,  in part,  on the Company's  ability to provide  evidence to the medical
community of the safety, efficacy and cost-effectiveness of its products and the
procedures in which these  products are intended to be used. To date,  the OPERA
STAR  System  has only been used to treat a limited  number of  patients  and no
published  reports  regarding  the use of the OPERA STAR System exist to support
the Company's marketing effort. Furthermore, there is little long-term follow-up
data on patients who underwent OPERA using the OPERA STAR System. If the Company
is not able to demonstrate  long-term success with the OPERA STAR System, market
acceptance would be materially adversely affected.

     The  Company's  OPERA  STAR  System is  designed  for use by a  gynecologic
surgeon  trained in the OPERA  procedure.  Market  acceptance  of the  Company's
products will require a willingness  on the part of  gynecologic  surgeons to be
trained to perform  OPERA  using the  Company's  products.  Furthermore,  market
acceptance may be limited because some physicians and payors,  recognizing  that
the removal of the uterus in a hysterectomy precludes the potential reoccurrence
of uterine disorders, will be reluctant to substitute the OPERA procedure (which
allows the patient to retain her uterus) for hysterectomy.  The Company believes
that most gynecologists  view hysterectomy as an appropriate  therapy to treat a
variety  of  uterine   disorders.   As  a  result,  the  Company  believes  that
recommendations and endorsements of its products by influential  physicians will
be essential for market  acceptance of its products.  No assurances  can be made
that the Company will receive such recommendations or endorsements.

     The Company  further  believes that the ability of health care providers to
obtain adequate  reimbursement  for OPERA procedures using the OPERA STAR System
will be critical to market acceptance of the Company's products. There can be no
assurance  that the cost of  procedures  in which the OPERA STAR  System is used
will be adequately reimbursed by third-party payors under existing reimbursement
policies and codes.  The Company has no experience in gaining  reimbursement  in
the U.S. or any foreign  market.  The  Company  expects to price its  disposable
resectoscope at a premium over the prices  currently  charged for the disposable
components  of  competitive  resectoscopes.  Another  factor  that may limit the
market acceptance of the Company's OPERA STAR System is that it is not currently
compatible  with all telescopes  utilized in  gynecologic  surgery and therefore
might  require  surgeons  using  incompatible  telescopes to acquire a different
telescope  in order to use the  OPERA  STAR  System.  Failure  of the  Company's
products to achieve market  acceptance  would have a material  adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations

     Limited Operating Experience

     The Company has a limited history of operations. Since its incorporation in
November  1994,  the  Company  has focused  primarily  on  research  and product
development  efforts,  clinical  trials  and  seeking  regulatory  clearance  or
approval  for the OPERA STAR System and Flo-Stat  System.  The Company has never
generated  significant  revenues,  and has limited  experience  manufacturing in
commercial   quantities,   marketing  or  selling  products.   The  Company  has
experienced  significant  operating  losses since  inception  and expects  these
losses to continue for the next several  years.  There can be no assurance  that
the Company  will be  successful  in  commercializing  the OPERA STAR System and
Flo-Stat System. Whether the Company can successfully manage the transition to a
large-scale  commercial  enterprise  will  depend  upon  a  number  of  factors,
including   obtaining  selected   international   regulatory  and  reimbursement
approvals for its existing or potential  products,  establishing  its commercial
manufacturing   capability,   developing   its  U.S.   marketing   and   selling
capabilities,  and establishing a distribution network in international markets.
Failure to make such a  transition  successfully  would have a material  adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.


     History of Losses

     The  Company  has  experienced   significant  operating  losses  since  its
inception and, as of June 30, 1997 had an accumulated  deficit of  approximately
$17.6 million. The Company expects to generate substantial additional losses for
the  next  several  years  due to  increased  operating  expenditures  primarily
attributable to research and development activities,  including clinical trials,
seeking regulatory and reimbursement  approvals and establishing  manufacturing,
marketing and sales activities.  There can be no assurance that the Company will
achieve significant revenues. Failure to achieve significant revenues would have
a material  adverse effect on the Company's  business,  financial  condition and
results of operations.
