Date: Monday, August 14, 2023
Requested
Time: 4:30 P.M. Eastern Time
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
In
accordance with Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the undersigned registrant (the “Registrant”)
hereby requests that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) take appropriate action to cause
the above-referenced Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) to become effective
on August 14, 2023, at 4:30 p.m., Eastern Time, or as soon thereafter as is practicable, or at such later time as the Registrant
may orally request via telephone call to the staff (the “Staff”). This request for acceleration is subject,
however, to your receiving a telephone call prior to such time from our legal counsel, Procopio, Cory, Hargreaves & Savitch LLP,
confirming this request. The Registrant hereby authorizes each of Dennis Doucette of Procopio, Cory, Hargreaves & Savitch LLP, counsel
to the Registrant, to make such request on its behalf.
Once
the Registration Statement has been declared effective, please orally confirm that event with Dennis Doucette of Procopio, Cory, Hargreaves
& Savitch LLP, counsel to the Registrant, at (858) 720-6322.
In
connection with this request, the Registrant acknowledges that:
●
should
the Commission or the Staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the Registration Statement effective, it does not foreclose
the Commission from taking any action with respect to the Registration Statement;
●
the
action of the Commission or the Staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the Registration Statement effective,
does not relieve the Registrant from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the Registration
Statement; and
●
the
Registrant may not assert Staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense
in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities
laws of the United States.
Very truly yours,
Evofem Biosciences, Inc.
