Our dream is clear.
We want to live in a world where health equity exists.
Where pain isn’t something we should just accept.
Where women have a say in their health.
Where women have access to innovative, research-backed solutions.
Women’s health has been falling behind for decades and it’s time to change that.
Better days are coming.
Meliodays are coming.

THERE’S A FLAWED PARADIGM IN THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE THAT WOMEN SHOULD ACCEPT THEIR FATE.

For centuries, the healthcare system has failed to serve women adequately. From underfunded research into conditions that disproportionately affect women, such as fibroids, adenomyosis and PCOS, to the systemic dismissal of menstrual and reproductive health concerns, the gender health gap is glaring.

Women are 50% more likely to be misdiagnosed after a heart attack compared to men, and it takes an average of seven to ten years for women to receive a diagnosis for endometriosis. This disparity is not only unacceptable but dangerous.

We stand for health equality and believe every woman deserves better and our team rejects the status quo and we’re here to redefine a new normal.
