Berlin-based Femtech offers women self-tests for home use. Now it is raising capital.
Many drugs in studies are tested only on men, yet most drugs are produced for both sexes. Diagnosis also often differentiates between men and women, even though women may have different symptoms for the same condition, according to an NDR report. To further advance gender-equitable medicine in Germany, several investors have now invested a seven-figure sum in the startup Femna Health, according to Deutsche Startups.de.
The main investors include Ingo Schütte, Suman Rewari, Atreyu Investments, Rubina Hunger-Rewari, BACB Beteiligungsgesellschaft, Moritz Hilger and Alexandra Pries, and legacy investor IBB Capital. The young company would offer easy access to detailed diagnostics, education and personal counseling, as well as integrative therapeutic solutions for women from home. This would primarily involve self-tests for bladder infections, thyroid disorders and STIs. Femtech was founded in Berlin in 2016 by Maxie Matthiessen and is, according to its own statements, a women-led start-up.
