Let’s hear it for the FemTech leaders advancing at-home testing for women 🙌 From checking for a UTI to HormoneTesting, these products make WomensHealthcare more affordable & more accessible 🔬👩⚕️ 🥂 to women making other women more informed!
Hana Janebdar, the founder of Juno Bio, said antibiotics and unprotected sex are two common causes of an imbalanced vaginal microbiome. But when it turns into something that keeps coming back, it's often because the health condition or infection is not diagnosed or treated soon enough. “Getting it right is really, really important because there's not much you can do when your vagina is on fire,” she said.
The Tulipon is inserted into the vagina like a tampon. But instead of an absorbent material, it opens into a cup-like device just under the cervix. This cup collects all the menstrual effluent . When the Tulipon’s string is pulled, the cup seals at the top and all of the menses are collected into a contained pouch, which can be easily pulled out of the vagina.
Why would you want to collect your menses? Well, first, the Tulipon has marks on the side of the product that indicate milliliters. Just like your measuring cups in the kitchen! Now women can tell their physicians exactly how much blood they’re losing each menstrual cycle. So, let’s give a shout-out to the women who’ve created products that are meeting the rising demand for women to play a role in their own healthcare. An added bonus: Access to in-home diagnostics is convenient for everybody, but it’s especially important for women who live in healthcare deserts where it’s difficult to get the care they need.
