HOW FEMPOWER HEALTH GOT STARTED
The Story
Who would have imagined that stumbling upon a paper I wrote in 1992 about the FDA's mandate for women's inclusion in clinical trials would ignite an enduring passion for women's health?
​
Over the next 20+ years, I embarked on a relentless pursuit to make a profound impact in the field of women’s health. My journey took a personal turn when I faced a heartbreaking battle with infertility.
​
However, once I recovered, I realized that the challenges women face extend far beyond infertility and into women’s wellness as a whole. Issues such as being dismissed by doctors, enduring years of searching only to find no answers, grappling with shame, and navigating confusing online searches were all too prevalent. Yet, amidst this chaos, I also unearthed a valuable truth: the answers — though not readily apparent — could be found through diligent research and collaboration with voices advocating for women in healthcare.
​
For this reason, Fempower Health was born. Since 2020, by collaborating with top healthcare experts, researchers, and advocates, Fempower Health has become a trusted resource that empowers women with evidence-based information and support. Together, we continue to educate women, redefine the narrative surrounding women's health, and ensure every woman has the knowledge they need to thrive.
