Flo for Perimenopause is Launching to Empower the 1 Billion+ Women Who Experience Perimenopause Without the Support They Deserve
LONDON, July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Flo Health, the #1 women's health app worldwide [1] chosen by over 420 million people, today announces the launch of 'Flo for Perimenopause,' a new in-app offering of personalized guidance and support for women who are in, entering, or curious about perimenopause. The feature offers educational content that is backed by research and insights, and created in collaboration with its team of 100+ medical experts. With Flo for Perimenopause, Flo Health is redefining how women navigate one of the most misunderstood and underserved stages of life.
More than a billion women worldwide will have gone through perimenopause and menopause by 2025 [2], yet more than half (54%) of women in a recent Flo Health survey said they don't feel adequately informed about perimenopause and its potential symptoms and effects on their health [3]. This leaves many feeling confused, isolated and misinformed.
This launch also continues Flo's dedication to perimenopause research and education. A study published by Flo's Science team earlier this year in the Nature portfolio journal npj Women's Health revealed that symptoms that are considered typical for perimenopause can occur earlier than previously thought. [4]
With 72% of perimenopausal women saying their symptoms are limiting their life experiences, including self-esteem, sex, and social lives being the top areas affected [5], Flo believes it can play an instrumental role in closing the perimenopause knowledge gap and empowering women through this life stage.
Flo for Perimenopause will provide expert-verified content and symptom tracking, plus personalized health insights so women can stop guessing what's going on with their bodies, and feel better prepared for the changes ahead.
Users will be able to:
Receive a Perimenopause Score: A key element of Flo for Perimenopause is the Perimenopause Score, developed by Flo's science and medical teams as the first digital assessment tool specifically designed and scientifically validated for perimenopause symptoms. It will evaluate users based on the symptoms they are experiencing and help them understand the real life impact of symptoms. Track (and spot!) cycle irregularities: See a window of time when your next period might come, instead of an exact date, based on the cycle data you log — super helpful for understanding how your body's rhythms might be changing, while also helping you prepare ahead of time. Better understand their bodies: Track symptoms from hot flashes to mood changes, fatigue and sleep disturbances. While in Flo for Perimenopause, users will also receive daily, medically-verified tips and information about their personal symptoms from Flo's team of medical experts. Users will also be able to access clearly laid out perimenopause milestones that will help them through this transition phase. Better manage their symptoms: Increase understanding of how perimenopause may be impacting individual users, and find solutions to stop symptoms from taking over their lives using tips from daily personalized content, revealing symptom trends from symptom reports, and improving knowledge with the perimenopause content library. Hear from experts: Get support every step of the way from Flo medical experts and OBGYNs who have supported countless women on this journey, so users can feel more confident about asking their own doctors and medical teams the right questions. Access a powerful community of likeminded women: Connect with others who can relate to what they are going through with Secret Chats, Flo's anonymous in-app feature that connects users for private discussions on female health and well-being to foster community and support.
To support the launch, Flo is partnering with comedian and actress Laura Benanti, who speaks openly and honestly about her personal experience with perimenopause in her new solo show 'Laura Benanti: Nobody Cares.'
'I can only hope by speaking candidly about my experience with perimenopause it doesn't have to feel so taboo or even shameful to the countless other women going through these brutal symptoms. I was really blindsided by what was happening to me when I started experiencing perimenopause, and I'm grateful Flo is now offering women a resource to help combat that unsure feeling,' said Benanti. 'And if we can't laugh about the 'menopause appetizer' that absolutely none of us ordered, what can we laugh about?'
Flo Health and its expert medical team echo the sentiment that women have suffered in silence long enough.
'Perimenopause isn't a mystery—it's a natural life stage that deserves nuanced understanding, support, and open conversation,' said Dr. Sameena Rahman, a board-certified OB/GYN, sex-med gynecologist, and menopause specialist. 'A tool like Flo for Perimenopause could be truly transformative for the many women I see who arrive confused, overwhelmed, and unaware of what their bodies are going through—simply because no one ever taught them what to expect.'
Flo for Perimenopause will be available to all users starting July 21, 2025. The Flo Health app can be downloaded from both the Apple App Store (for iOS devices) and Google Play Store (for Android devices).

Women's Health Diagnostics Market Hits $14.6 Billion-Kalorama Information Report Reveals Key Growth Drivers to 2030
Comprehensive analysis reveals emerging opportunities in imaging, molecular diagnostics, and AI-driven tools as women's health takes center stage in global care strategies. ARLINGTON, Va., July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Kalorama Information, a leading healthcare market research firm, has released its latest report, Women's Health Diagnostic Markets: Global Outlook and Forecast to 2030. This in-depth analysis examines the current and projected global markets for diagnostic tests uniquely relevant to women's health, offering vital insights for diagnostic companies, investors, and healthcare stakeholders seeking to capitalize on evolving clinical and consumer needs. As global life expectancy for women continues to rise—and as women account for over 75% of healthcare decision-making in U.S. households—the report emphasizes a critical shift in medical diagnostics toward more personalized, sex-specific tools. Diagnostics are rapidly becoming the backbone of this transformation, enabling earlier detection, better outcomes, and more cost-effective care across the female lifespan. 'The global market for women's health test products is estimated to be worth $14.6 billion in 2024. This arena—once confined to obstetrics and gynecology—now spans specialties such as urology, maternal-fetal medicine, autoimmune and genetic disease,' said Justin Saeks, Senior Analyst at Kalorama Information. 'Diagnostics are essential to connecting patients to the right treatment at the right time, yet they remain one of the most cost-efficient parts of the healthcare system.' Key Takeaways from the Report Rising Global Adoption of NIPT: Non-invasive prenatal testing is now recommended for all U.S. pregnancies and is gaining ground globally. North America accounts for 44% of global NIPT revenues and is projected to grow at 8%+ CAGR through 2029. Mammography Market on the Rise: Driven by widespread breast cancer screening, the mammography systems segment—dominated by digital technology—is forecast to grow at a mid-single-digit CAGR through 2030. AI Transforms Diagnostic Imaging: Advances in deep learning are fueling the growth of computer-aided detection (CAD) tools, projected to expand by nearly 7% annually. Diagnostics Drive Over 70% of Medical Decisions, yet account for less than 5% of total healthcare costs—highlighting a high-impact, under-leveraged sector for innovation and investment. What's Inside the Report The report offers detailed segmentation and forecasts across major diagnostic categories: Imaging: Mammography, OB/GYN ultrasound, CADe/CADx Genetic and Prenatal Testing: NIPT, carrier screening Sexually Transmitted and Infectious Disease: HPV, TORCH, UTI diagnostics Fertility & Pregnancy: POC and lab-based fertility, ovulation, pregnancy testing Cancer and Autoimmune: Pap tests, ovarian cancer biomarkers, autoimmune immunoassays Preventive Diagnostics: Bone densitometry, colposcopy systems Companies Profiled: Becton Dickinson (BD), Hologic, GE HealthCare, Roche, Siemens Healthineers, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and emerging players across key sectors. Who Should Read This Report This report is a must-read for: IVD and Device Manufacturers planning next-gen products in imaging, POC, or molecular diagnostics Pharma and Biotech Firms seeking companion diagnostics for women-targeted therapies Investors and M&A Teams identifying high-growth diagnostic segments Healthcare Providers and Policymakers aiming to close the gap in women's health equity Commercial and Strategy Leaders aligning messaging, product roadmaps, and reimbursement strategies Availability & Contact Information Explore the report: Women's Health Diagnostic Markets: Global Outlook and Forecast to 2030 is available now from Kalorama Information.
