OOVA, a women’s health platform specializing in remote hormone monitoring, has unveiled its new at-home Perimenopause Hormone Kit. The kit, unique in its approach according to the company, features urine-based multi-hormone biomarkers, including estrogen (E3G), and is complemented by an app that offers real-time data tracking.
Differing from traditional blood or FSH-only urine tests, the OOVA kit enables a comprehensive 15-day hormone fluctuation measurement within a single cycle, and tracks progress month-over-month. This approach provides both women and their physicians with deep insights into the perimenopause journey.
The kit includes test strips that are scanned into OOVA’s HIPAA-compliant app. The app employs advanced AI and machine learning to convert scans into quantitative results, understandable by both patients and clinicians. OOVA’s predictive algorithms adapt to each woman’s unique hormone profile, offering insights into perimenopausal hormone activity, symptom tracking, fertility indications, and ovulation confirmation for those trying to conceive. It also assists in monitoring hormone patterns for patients starting Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Furthermore, patients can share their data with clinicians in real-time from home.
“There are significant gaps in hormone health research, especially as it relates to perimenopause,” said Amy Divaraniya, Ph.D., Founder and CEO of OOVA. “We know doctors and patients alike are missing methods to pinpoint where someone is in their journey and identify how symptoms correspond to hormone changes, which often leaves women navigating this life phase in the dark. With the Perimenopause Hormone Kit, women can better understand their bodies, while tracking data that empowers them to make informed decisions with their physicians.”
“Oova’s test serves as a significant leap forward in healthcare,” said Dr. Beck Hoehn, LAc, FABORM, Mighty River Wellness, Advisor to Oova. “In this stage of women’s health that has traditionally been passed over, Oova’s perimenopause kit equips both the patient and clinician with real-time, accurate insight needed to navigate the complexities with confidence and clarity. It’s a game-changer.”
OOVA initially focused on fertility and ovulation tracking, but has expanded its offerings to support women through all life stages.
