27. How to close the gender data gap and support menstrual and vaginal health with Valentina Milanova, founder of Daye

  • Resumen

  • Valentina Milanova is the founder of Daye, the gynae health company on a mission to close the gender pain gap and overcome historical gender biases in medical research and product innovation. After years of research and testing, Daye launched its first consumer product in 2020 - the world‘s first and only tampon to fight menstrual cramps. Daye's central hypothesis is that you can use tampons for a lot more than just soaking up menstrual fluid, which is why they have developed tampons for endometriosis; for the detection of STIs and HPV; and for the treatment of common vaginal infections.
