Frustrated with being told, “It’s all in your head”? Femmflo is changing the narrative. Our latest feature with WWBA dives into the innovative solutions we’re bringing to hormonal health, ensuring that women get the answers and support they deserve.
Women are significantly more likely to experience medical trauma than men, largely due to gender biases within the healthcare system. This disparity is evident in the delays women face in receiving a diagnosis and starting treatment.
According to Dr. Jessica Schneider, a renowned researcher in women’s health at Johns Hopkins University, and Dr. Raymond Anchan from Brigham and Women’s Hospital, women can face delays of up to 10 years before receiving a proper diagnosis.
These delays often stem from gender stereotypes, a lack of awareness about women-specific health issues, and the underrepresentation of women in medical research. At Femmflo, we are committed to addressing these challenges and ensuring that women receive timely and accurate care.
Women frequently encounter fragmented healthcare, particularly when managing hormonal imbalances and chronic conditions such as reproductive pain and depression. A patient-centered approach that considers the unique needs and experiences of women is crucial. Unfortunately, symptoms are often dismissed, leading to conditions like thyroid dysfunction going undiagnosed. Early intervention and comprehensive care are key to addressing these systemic issues and improving women’s health outcomes.
This lack of integrated care can result in unmanaged health issues, missed work, financial strain, and prolonged health struggles. At Femmflo, we aim to bridge these gaps in care through our comprehensive approach that prioritises women’s well-being and empowerment.
Femmflo is a B2C app offering AI-powered hormonal and mental health monitoring for women. Through both at-home and in-lab testing, our app can identify conditions like Endometriosis, Thyroid disorders, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), and more, which often go unnoticed in traditional healthcare settings. Femmflo provides tailored testing and creates personalised treatment plans based on individual results.
Our commitment to improving women’s health goes beyond just diagnosis and treatment. Femmflo also focuses on pain prevention and management, addressing the root causes of chronic conditions that lead to physical discomfort and emotional distress. Additionally, we offer comprehensive mental health support to help manage the anxiety, depression, and stress that often accompany hormonal imbalances. This approach ensures not only a balanced mind and healthier life but also contributes to a more effective and compassionate healthcare system.
