Gentlemen:                         Re:   Registration  Statement  on  Form  SB-2

     We  have  acted  as  counsel  for  The  Female  Health Company, a Wisconsin
corporation  (the  "Company"),  in connection with the Company's registration of
1,970,000  shares  (the  "Shares")  of  its  $.01  par value common stock at the
request  of  certain  selling  stockholders  (the  "Selling  Stockholders").    

     In  such  capacity we have examined, among other documents, the Articles of
Incorporation  of the Company, as amended and the Registration Statement on Form
SB-2  to  be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
or  shortly  after  the  date  of  this  letter covering the sale by the Selling
Stockholders  of  the  Shares.  Based  on  the  foregoing  and  such  additional
investigation as we have deemed necessary, it is our opinion that the Shares are
(or,  after  issuance  upon  exercise  of  the  warrants  as  set  forth  in the
Registration  Statement,  will be) legally issued, fully-paid and nonassessable.
We  note,  however,  that  Wisconsin  Statutes  section  180.0622(2)(b),  as    
interpreted,  provides that shareholders of the Company may be personally liable
in  an  amount  equal  to  the  par value of their shares for all debts owing to
employees  of  the  Company  for  services  performed  for  the Company, but not
exceeding  six  months'  service  in  any  one  case.                           

     We  consent  to  the  filing of a copy of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration  Statement  on  Form  SB-2  and  to the use of our name beneath the
caption  "Legal  Matters"  in  the prospectus forming a part of the Registration
Statement.                                                                      

                                          REINHART  BOERNER  VAN  DEUREN  s.c.
