Embody

Embody’s mission is to empower menstruators to embrace their cycles. Nearly a third of women in the United States use a period tracker. In the wake of newly activated state laws and uncertain legal boundaries, we face a difficult choice – should we delete our period trackers and our online menstrual history? Is our data really safe? No one should have to fear that their most private health data be shared, sold, or used against them in a court of law. Period trackers are a vital tool for our health. People track for numerous reasons. Period trackers allow us to track the many symptoms associated with our cycle, gain insight into our body’s rhythms over months and years, avoid pregnancy, pursue pregnancy, and monitor a medical diagnosis in partnership with our doctors. We use them for our sexual health. At Embody, we put privacy first in our cycle tracking app.
