It’s been a huge kickoff into 2024 building Aavia with and for our members—closer together and faster than ever before! As Women’s History Month comes to an end, I wanted to share my personal story for starting Aavia as a cofounder and Head of Design & Experience. For a long time, I suffered migraines where I would lose parts of my vision. I’d go to see doctors trying to understand why, but after a series of appointments with neurologists and optometrists, my doctors only told me to “stress less.” I felt defeated. Not knowing what to do next, I went down a rabbit hole of learning how much hormones impact so much more than just our periods, from mood, sleep, energy, focus, and more. I was able to identify that my migraines were a cyclical pattern and only then was I able to get the right diagnosis, related to my hormones. Our goal at Aavia is for our members to improve their quality of life, feel better and in control, and learn to be their own best advocates to their doctors, partners, employers, and beyond. I’m so excited for what we have in store this year. Thank you for all the love and support. Big feature announcements soon! #womenshistorymonth #hormonehealth #womenshealth #healthtech

Aya Suzuki, thank you for sharing your story. The more women share these experiences, the more we unite in our common experiences of womanhood that so often go unheard. I have loved watching Aavia's journey. Cannot wait to celebrate your next chapter!

Aya Suzuki The "stress less" or "relax more" solution to ALL our problems is indeed super frustrating. All these initiatives that finally make our problems as women visible and fixable without the mere use of paracetamol and "stress less" are incredibly inspiring! Looking forward to seeing more of what Aavia will bring soon!
