The majority of medications women use today were not even tested on female bodies. Valentina Milanova, who suffered from gynecological pain as a teen, is determined to close this gender health gap. She founded Daye to improve women's health with products like CBD tampons and probiotics.
of VC funding in 2020. This means that in the rare cases when female-centered medical research is taking place, it is forced to exist within conditions of extreme scarcity.
3. Encourage language equality. The female body, while frequently over-sexualized and exploited for profit, is nothing to be ashamed of. The word “vagina” may make many people feel uncomfortable, but it is not a curse word. It's important we use the correct words to name our physiology. 4. Be honest about our gynecological health experiences. The next time you need a day off work to deal with period pain or menopause symptoms, be honest with your manager and don't fake a migraine. Only by speaking out about our experiences will we see the real impact and invest in raising the standard of women's healthcare.
Eventually, doctors confirmed that Milanova had a cyst on her ovary. It was this experience that brought her “the endless conviction that pain caused by gynecological health issues is one of the greatest injustices today” – and the cause that she wanted to devote her life to. These days, Milanova loves hearing positive feedback from Daye customers about how her products are improving their gynaecological health experiences.
When she was first starting Daye, people around her told Milanova she was crazy, it would never work. Finally, one person said yes, she should go for it. As a result, Milanova has this advice for aspiring entrepreneurs and change makers. “Too frequently we make our dreams and aspirations appear scarier than they are. Your life purpose is for the taking, so give it a go. Movement, making mistakes, and learning are always better than suffering from fear-induced action paralysis.
