Help women with PCOS manage their condition through our health program
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects 1 in 10 women globally, yet it remains one of the most under-diagnosed and misunderstood hormonal disorders. Our startup addresses the social and healthcare inequality faced by individuals with PCOS, who often experience delayed diagnosis, misinformation, and a lack of holistic support. Many face chronic physical and emotional challenges—ranging from irregular periods and infertility to anxiety, depression, and body image issues.
Socially, PCOS is stigmatised and frequently dismissed, especially in low-resource settings, where access to specialised care is limited and digital health education is minimal. Environmental challenges also arise from a lack of culturally sensitive, inclusive, and personalised resources for managing lifestyle and medical interventions.
We aim to close these gaps by providing accessible, evidence-based tools and community support to help individuals manage PCOS proactively—supporting not just physical health, but also mental well-being, self-advocacy, and long-term empowerment.
Our startup empowers individuals with PCOS to take control of their health through a personalised, holistic digital platform. We combine science-backed tools, expert guidance, and community support to address the unique and complex challenges of managing PCOS.
We focus on three core pillars:
Education & Awareness – We provide clear, accessible content to help users understand PCOS, its symptoms, and treatment options. By demystifying the condition, we help users become confident advocates for their own care.
Personalised Health Management – Our platform offers customised lifestyle plans (nutrition, yoga, mental health support and supplementation guidance) tailored to the individual’s symptoms, goals, and health data. We also support symptom tracking and integration with healthcare providers for a more cohesive care journey.
Community & Mental Health Support – We create safe spaces for peer support and access to mental health resources, helping users feel seen, heard, and supported. This combats the isolation and anxiety that often accompanies PCOS.
By blending technology, empathy, and expert insight, we aim to close the care gap, reduce stigma, and help users lead healthier, more fulfilling lives—on their own terms.
We’re a health initiative delivering holistic, culturally relevant treatment options for Indian women with PCOS. Our digital presence is essential to reach the right audience—women searching for trustworthy, lifestyle-based PCOS solutions. We’re looking for an SEO-savvy volunteer to help drive organic traffic and grow our reach.
