Mira launches 'Menopause Transitions Kit' to help women spot early signs
The at-home hormonal tracking kit monitors four key hormones
Hormonal health company Mira has launched Mira Hormone Monitor: Menopause Transitions Kit to help women aged 35 and older track their hormones to spot early signs of perimenopause and manage them effectively.
The kit is an AI-based hormone tracking monitor that enables women to navigate the hormonal transition at-home from the late reproductive stage and earliest perimenopause to postmenopause.
Sylvia Kang, CEO of Mira, said:
“While many existing solutions only address the problem when it already exists, Mira Hormone Monitor: Menopause Transitions Kit provides an opportunity to enter and go through the whole menopause journey without guessing, address symptoms earlier, and better understand the changes that are such a normal part of ageing”.
Symptoms can begin early
Menopause affects around 47 million people annually, with about 47% of women experiencing the first symptoms of perimenopause in their mid-thirties-forties, according to the Mira study.
While women admit menopause dramatically affects their lives, more than half still don’t know the symptoms associated with the transition. Thus, over 80% of women do not know or even have a basic understanding of menopause.
Mira’s Menopause Transitions Kit tracks four key reproductive hormones (FSH, E3G, PdG, LH). Additionally, Mira launches a Menopause Transitions mode in its app for Mira Kit users. It will use customer data to define the current reproductive stage, anticipate approaching menopause, and offer insights to follow. Menopause Transitions Kit and Menopause app mode address a significant gap in menopause prediction solutions on the market.
The monitor provides lab-grade accurate hormone monitoring for women at 35-60 to identify and address the menopause transition at the early stages, manage symptoms and evaluate the effectiveness of HRT or other treatments as well as lifestyle adjustments.
Sylvia Kang continued:
“Unfortunately, menopause remains a deeply stigmatised issue, accompanied by the lack of education for women and helpful tools to prepare. By launching the menopause transition kit, we aim to offer women a solution that informs and empowers them.
While there are competitors to the kit on the market already, Mira’s Menopause Transitions Kit monitors a full spectrum of reproductive hormones (FSH, E3G, PdG, LH), rather than just FSH. Understanding these early symptoms and hormone fluctuations can facilitate informed discussions with healthcare professionals and provide a sense of control during menopause transitions.
