I'm excited to be speaking at Female's Favour{IT}e Conference on 9th November in Mannheim! I’ll be joining an inspiring panel on Women’s Health Tech to dive deep into how technology is reshaping healthcare for women worldwide. If you’re passionate about innovation, health, and technology, you won’t want to miss this! 🚺 Why Women’s Health in Tech? Women make up half the global population, yet their unique health needs have historically been overlooked. From limited funding to gender biases in research, this lack of focus has led to gaps in care that impact women throughout their lives. Conditions like endometriosis, fibroids, PCOS and autoimmune disorders, which disproportionately affect women, often take years to diagnose, leaving millions to suffer without effective solutions. It’s time to change that! This panel will unpack how digital health, AI, and data-driven insights are advancing women’s health in ways that are more personalized, accessible, and transformative. Joining me in the panel are: 💡 Natalie Rechberg (CEO, Valley Electronics AG) Natalie is helping women understand their bodies better through tech, using menstrual cycle data to empower informed decisions. 💡 Dr. Akvile Ignotaite (Founder, System Akvile) Akvile’s AI-powered skincare platform helps young women understand their skin health, with over 500k users already benefiting from it. and moderated by 💡 Lisa Tschalenko (Digital health expert & Ecosystem manager 5-HT Chemistry & Health ) Let’s connect, innovate, and lead the future of women’s health tech together! 🚀 What to Expect? A day packed with forward-thinking discussions, new perspectives on tech, and networking with some of the most innovative minds across industries. 🎤 1 day with 30+ speakers in 4 tracks 📆 09.11.2024 📍 MAFINEX Technologiezentrum Mannheim 🔗 Get your tickets now: www.femalesfavourite.de The perfect chance to get inspired, share insights, build valuable connections, and shape the future of tech. #WomenInTech #FemalesFavourITe #femit2024 #HealthTech #Innovation #FutureOfHealthcare Thanks to Birka Wolff for organizng this conference along with GIG7 Kompetenzzentrum FeMale Business NEXT MANNHEIM MAFINEX Technologiezentrum CUBEX 41 & CUBEX ONE Might be interesting for memebers at encourageventures e.V.

We have only been really studying women's health for the last 10 years! When I had an increased heart rate and fatigue, the GP checked everything concerning the heart, referred me to a cardiologist and they found nothing. But my symptoms were due to anemia which is quite common in menstruating women my age with heavy bleeding. This should be backed into the doctors evaluations. Who knows what really is "heavy bleeding"?! The onus is on the patient to know what's wrong, seek the right doctor and communicate. Even then women feel unheard and their symptoms not taken seriously! Medical education needs to be adapted and quickly! Gynaecology has to be separated from Obstetrics. And women's health should be integrated into all faculties of medicine. Only then can we expect to have precision care for 50% of the population! Thanks to Dr Michelle Griffin for advocating for women's health education and bringing in the doctors perspective!

Key insights from the European Endometriosis Congress: A Patient and Innovator Perspective! #EEC2024 📸 **Imaging's Role:** It's unanimously agreed that imaging is crucial pre-operatively for diagnosis and treatment planning, and post-operatively for follow-ups, even when medical (hormonal) treatments are involved. 🩺 **Patient-Centric Approach:** The importance of hormonal treatments when appropriate was stressed, cautioning against unnecessary surgeries and overtreatment. The need for transparency in what each certified endometriosis center offers and where patients can find the right treatment for their specific stage of endometriosis was highlighted. This empowers patients to make informed decisions about their care. 🤖 **Robotic Surgery:** The advent of robotic surgery is transformative. It allows surgeons to perform maneuvers that aren’t possible manually, treat patients of various body types, and avoid fatigue during operation. I even had the chance to try out the robot myself! 👶 **Fertility Specialists Needed:** I felt the congress could have benefited from more fertility specialists given that endometriosis is a leading cause of infertility. 🔬 **Ultrasound Insights:** An interesting survey of 200 top gynecologists and radiologists on the use of ultrasound for diagnosis revealed its power yet complexity presented by Alin Stefan Constantin. 🌍 **Classification Systems:** The #Enzian classification is more prevalent in Europe, due to its precision and preferred over the ASRM or AAGL system widely used in the US. We know how endometriosis stages (ASRM) are boot similar to cancer stages and this distinction is important. 🧠 **AI in Detection:** It was a great pleasure to present a poster on AI-based detection of endometriosis and get feedback from key opinion leaders in the field. This congress was a significant step forward in addressing endometriosis with a balanced, patient-centric approach. Also, great organization by the congress president and committee. It was great to meet key opinion leaders and new connections Prof. Dr. Martin Sillem Dr. Joe Njagi Dr. med. Mohamed Gamal Ibrahim, M.Sc (Univ.
