Thank you Divya for this insightful post. You are right. Trial and error for something as impactful as birth control is deeply flawed. Your data-driven solution is brilliant—hormonal health deserves personalization at scale. This is why the work that Paulina and Elena of Dama Health are doing is so important and should be amplified.

Absolutely Maryann - I found the interview with Dr. Paulina insightful for work in the personalized hormonal solutions in health care. My take aways:

* personalized hormonal solutions are the future

* however, before getting to personalized solutions as a direct to consumer model, we need to fill the gap on creating the data sets and building the models which are at a higher level of clinical research + medical institutions

* private funding can fill the gap where public funding falls short
