Femtech, the Future of Women’s Healthcare

FemTech, short for female technology, refers to software and services that utilize technology to address women's health needs. The emergence of women’s health technologies, or ‘FemTech’, is a significant advancement in women’s healthcare and reproductive rights. These rights, which include the right to abortion, contraception, and equitable fertility treatment, are essential to guaranteeing women’s bodily autonomy and human dignity. The FemTech industry promises to empower women by offering them tools to better understand and manage their reproductive health through a solid empowerment narrative. While offering potential for improved access to healthcare and personalized solutions, FemTech also faces challenges related to data privacy, regulatory issues, and the need for more robust scientific evidence. 

Gender vs Sexuality

Sexuality Is Fluid Gender Is Immutable

Women have 28 trillion cells all with XX chromosomes; and males have 36 trillion cells with XY chromosomes. The Y chromosome carries genes that are involved in basic cellular functions. In females, most genes on one of the two X chromosomes are silenced in every cell. This inactivation makes each female a functional mosaic because some cells express one X chromosome, and other cells express the other. The advantages of heterozygosity can be amplified by selection against cells in which the active X chromosome carries a detrimental allele.
