We're on a mission to revolutionize women's health care.
LiGalli aspires to significantly enhance the quality of life and care of women by empowering patients and health care professionals with intelligent drug delivery and diagnostics.
Personalized drug administration and diagnoses are seen as the best way to treat patients. The LiGalli MedRing platform exists of a vaginal ring, a smartphone app and a data platform. With the MedRing Companion app women can personalize their medication and monitor their health for 4 weeks. The platform gives insights in understanding the science of women’s bodies and collect rich data to improve the treatments which until now are mainly male oriented.
We are committed to transform the way women are treated, monitored, and diagnosed.
Why we care
Women’s diseases need new attention
- Women’s health has been underrepresented in medical investment, research, and innovation.
- Medical solutions for women have not yet been fully explored because of still current male-first approach.
Existing solutions are not sufficient
- Millions of women experience problems, side effects, and intolerability related to current treatments.
- Women are 50-75% more likely to have adverse reaction to medications than men.
- Certain side effects that are typically experienced with oral drug intake may be reduced through the vaginal route.
Femtech is on the rise
- The lack of innovation in women’s health has led to current solutions that do not adequately support women.
- This gap leads to poorer quality of life and lower health outcomes for women.
