Meet Dama Health– a women’s health startup based in London with a mission to personalise medicine starting with contraception. They’re conducting a new and exciting contraception research study in the UK looking at genetic differences behind why some people experience side effects on hormonal contraception and others do not experience side effects on hormonal contraception. This genetics research study takes place from the comfort of your home and involves a short online health questionnaire followed up with a genetic test (using your saliva) that’s shipped directly to you.
For more information on study eligibility please visit their research page here or register for the study directly using the link below:
Did you know? 80% of hormonal contraception-users experience side effects and these side effects lead users to change contraception methods 3-5 times in their lifetime. The current process of finding the right contraception is a trial-and-error process that Dama Health wants to change. By taking part in our first-of-its-kind contraception research study and spreading awareness to your community, you could close the gender-health gap!
