1,000 Women Are Now Pregnant Thanks To PayPal's Founder

Nope, this isn't some weird fan-fiction story. It actually involves a fertility app called 'Glow' which was started by PayPal founder Max Levchin, and has reportedly helped over
1,000 users to get pregnant.
Glow users can opt to pitch in $50 a month for 10 months to the Glow First fund. If a user doesn't get pregnant in that time, she could withdraw money to help pay for fertility treatments. If she does, the money would be donated to help other women.
During the AllThingsD D11 conference, Levchin explained how cervical mucus can help couples pinpoint when to have to have sex to conceive. The latest update to the iOS app includes a new feature called Glow Community, where people can share their fertility experiences.
