Our
Story

60 million American women are navigating menopause symptoms at this very moment. All women age and all women will go through menopause. But rather than honoring our shared experiences, we’ve been brainwashed into fearing them. Instead of compassion and curiosity, we’ve been met at midlife with shame, stigma, and disgracefully subpar care. The status quo has failed us for too long.

But we deserve so much more. Clinical trials. Research dollars. Breakthrough science. Evidence based care. Community. A say in what happens to our bodies and how we feel.

WOMEN
CAN’T WAIT
ANY LONGER.

The spark has been lit. It's time for a revolution in menopause and midlife health.

They blamed it on your hormones when you spoke up, burned out, or said no. From puberty to perimenopause, your symptoms have been minimized. “It's just hormones,” they said. But here's the truth:

You're not overreacting.

You're not crazy.

You're not imagining it.

At Respin, we're done taking “no” for an answer. We're done letting hormones be the punchline, the dismissal, the diagnosis.

This is so much bigger than a set of symptoms. It's your sleep. Your relationships. Your mood, your identity. It's your whole damn life.

We believe your midlife should feel like a breakthrough - not a breakdown.

You are more than your estrogen levels.

You are more than your symptoms.

You are more than your hormones.

And now, your care is too.
