A Scouse entrepreneur has co-founded a “groundbreaking initiative” to aid women’s healthcare.
Emma Jarvis, a 32 year-old from Childwall, has teamed up with fellow women’s health advocate Karli Büchling to launch Europe’s first period bank. The period bank, which will officially launch later this year, will allow women to donate their menstrual sample, which will be analysed by scientists for vital research.
This not only has the potential to replace regular smear tests, but it could also aid with the diagnosis of conditions such as endometriosis. The duo announced their latest venture, Yoni Health, a women's health business that aims to close the gender health gap and provide women with the opportunity to take control of their health.
