Hi Product Hunt!
Aagya here, Cofounder and CEO of Aavia.
Today we’re excited to share Aavia, the first-to-market hormone health app and platform helping people with ovaries turn their hormones into their superpower.
We’re also announcing that Seven Seven Six led our latest round of funding with participation from many existing investors, totaling $7.5M raised to date.
We started Aavia because we believe that all people with ovaries deserve to understand and predict how their hormones make them feel. We're unlocking the next generation of health for people with ovaries by unlocking the connection between their brains, bodies, and hormones.
Our model is resonating: on average, Aavia members reported an 80% increase in confidence related to their health in just three weeks after downloading. Members rely on Aavia to help them improve their mental health and understand how their hormones impact the way their body feels throughout their cycle.
My (Abridged) Story:
My entire life people have been withholding information from me. When I was a teenager, my doctor told me that my irregular period was normal because I was an athlete. When I was in my early 20s, another doctor told me it wasn’t normal.
Fast forward through numerous issues and immense confusion. I was frustrated. What is going on? Why did they even put me on this medication? What is a normal period anyways? I started to look into research and talk to as many people as I could.
I was shocked by what I learned. No one was telling me the whole truth. The ovarian hormone cycle actually impacts WAY more than your period. People with ovaries have another cycle beyond the 24 hour circadian rhythm, a 21-35 day cycle where the ovarian hormones are fluctuating daily and depending on where you are in the cycle it impacts your quality of muscle toning, quality of sleep, energy levels, sex drive, skin, mood, and the list goes one. https://aavia.io/blogs/ooh-with-...
I’ll never forget the feeling: how different would the last two decades of my life have been if I would have been informed of this and I could plan accordingly? I played basketball and soccer – I would have had my teams train so differently if I would have known.
But that’s just my story. Half of the world’s population is going through the same thing. IMAGINE what you can do with this knowledge about yourself ー from planning your studying schedule based on when you’re the most productive so you can ace that test, to knowing when you need to take a mental break before the breakdown happens.
We’re building Aavia to help turn your hormones into your superpower!
Aavia helps members understand the connection between their brain, body, and hormones.
🔮What’s your hormonoscope? Aavia members receive a personalized hormonoscope based on their hormone cycle, predicting changes to their mood, sleep, skin, sex drive, and physical symptoms based on where they are in their hormone cycle. It’s like a crystal ball, for your hormones.
📝Aavia gets smarter as you swipe. Track mood, sleep, skin, sex drive, and physical symptoms, and get actionable tips to guide you through how to make the most of your follicular or luteal phase and trends into how you feel throughout your entire cycle.
🤝We’re in the group chat discussing all things hormones, anxiety, sex, periods, relationships and more. Members have access to an anonymous and safe forum where they ask questions, share funny stories, and find community with their peers.
🔐Always secure. Aavia never sells individual personal data. We are committed to protecting the privacy of our members with anonymous sign-in, Apple sign in, and an easy-to-read privacy policy.
👋 We’re hiring! We’re recruiting for our first Senior Product Manager to drive the strategy, execution, and growth of our product as we scale our hormone insights to even more people. Does this sound like you? DM us!

Why didn't this project exist before? When I think back to my puberty years, I get very sad because there was no one around to tell me about my hormones and how my hormonal system in general worked. Often I blamed myself for my laziness, over-emotionalism, and low self-esteem simply because I didn't realize that the state I was in at the time was the absolute norm.

I grew up in the south where hormone education meant learning about how not to get pregnant and had to rely on friends to understand what was really happening to my body. I’m so happy this exists and excited for the impact it can have on my health and the next gen. Especially in this time of uncertainty for women’s health. Thank you Aagya for making this for us!!!
