About
Built for the decade nobody prepares you for.
Perimenopause can begin ten years before your last period. It rarely announces itself. It changes your sleep, your mood, your memory and your body — and the tools available were built for pregnancy or for periods, not for this.
The idea for Fempower came from a familiar scene: awake at 3am, heart going, mind racing, convinced something is wrong — and no way to find out at that hour whether this is a crisis or a Tuesday in the luteal phase.
The information exists. It is scattered across research papers, specialist clinics, excellent books and a lot of very bad forum threads. What did not exist was something that could take a sentence typed at 3am and hand back the specific, grounded answer: here is the hormone most likely behind this, here is why it happens at this hour and this point in your cycle, here are three things to try, and here is the sentence to say at your appointment.
So we built it. Fempower is small on purpose. It does one thing — turn how you feel into something you understand and can act on — and then it does the unglamorous, essential part almost nothing else does: it asks whether it worked.
What we hold ourselves to
Explain, don't just record
A number in a chart changes nothing. Knowing that your 3am waking is low progesterone changes how you think about yourself — and what you ask for.
Specific beats gentle
“Try to relax” is not advice. 200–300mg of magnesium glycinate an hour before bed, judged after ten days, is advice.
Close every loop
If we suggest something, we ask what happened. Anything else is guessing dressed up as personalisation.
Assume she's busy
Three taps to log. One insight a day. No streaks, no badges, nothing designed to keep you in the app longer than you need to be.
Say what we don't know
We are not your doctor, we do not diagnose, and we tell you plainly when the answer is “take this to your GP”.
Her data is hers
Never sold, never shared with advertisers, deletable in full from inside the app. This is the most personal data there is.
We want to hear when we get it wrong
If an explanation reads as patronising, a suggestion misses, or something in the app makes you feel worse rather than better, tell us. That feedback shapes the knowledge base directly.
