Opportunity
Nothing on the current market directly measures women’s hormones
Most all use biometrics to provide an estimation of cycles
and aren’t specifically geared toward womens health
Perimenopause
is a natural process where Estrogen levels decrease
Hormone changes affect all parts of the body
When your body changes,
you don’t feel like yourself anymore

- finding medications to solve their symptoms
- lack of trusted knowledge source
- no acknowledgment of the emotional stress of perimenopause
Doctors have to trial and error medications:
- very little information on hormone levels
- multiple symptoms are misguiding for diagnosing
