Breaking barriers in global health literacy 🌍 Want to see how Flo’s Pass It On Project, our commitment to providing free Flo Premium to women living in countries with little access to safe and trustworthy health information, is helping improve health knowledge for women? In our latest research, led by Frederick Goddard, PhD and recently published in BMJ Public Health, our Science Team has shown the positive impact accessible health education can have. The research surveyed 6,165 women across 52 countries, each of whom were given free access to Flo Premium as part of Flo’s Pass It On Project, with some pretty conclusive results. Not only did our results show the huge gaps in health education that exist, but they also showed using Flo Premium for at least 3 months led to: 📈 19% increase in menstrual health knowledge 📈 9% boost in menstrual health awareness 📈 8% reduction in menstrual stigma 📈 5% improvement in communication confidence “Our study clearly shows the benefits of using Flo, particularly in areas of the world where menstrual health education is under-resourced,” said Liudmila Zhaunova, PhD, Flo’s Director of Science. “The Pass it On Project was set up to help address these health knowledge gaps, and we’re really pleased to see Flo is helping people get the knowledge they need.” Read more about our findings here 👉 https://lnkd.in/eNinD6bU #WomensHealth #HealthLiteracy #MenstrualHealth #GlobalHealth #ResearchImpact https://lnkd.in/gn5ZnxKj

What happens when you get the right perimenopause support? You feel prepared and more in control of what’s changing. Flo for Perimenopause is designed to help every woman tune in to how perimenopause is showing up for them. We built a Perimenopause Score to measure the impact of symptoms, worked with our team of doctors to offer actionable and personalised content depending on what you log, and created space for you to find community when you need it most. Flo for Perimenopause is ready when you are.

Perimenopause shouldn’t come as one of life's surprises. More than one billion women worldwide will have gone through perimenopause by the end of 2025.

Brand-new features like Perimenopause Score show the real-life impact of symptoms on daily life and offer personalized, expert tips for feeling good. We’re ready to redefine this under-researched life stage and finally give women the clarity they deserve to feel confident about what’s ahead. No more surprises.

Three years ago, Roe v. Wade was reversed. Today, a pertinent reminder from our very own Sue Khan that privacy - just like reproductive freedom - is not a privilege, but a right.

This week, there has been a lot of conversation about menstrual tracking apps. Our VP of Privacy, Sue Khan is here to clear a few things up. Let's work together - not apart - to ensure women's rights are upheld.

Your body. Your data. So why are period apps under police scrutiny? 🚔 News from the UK reveals officers are being advised to search health apps - including period and fertility trackers during pregnancy loss investigations. It’s a disturbing shift, and it raises a critical question: When did tracking your cycle become a privacy risk? 🩸 At Flo, privacy isn’t just a policy. It’s non-negotiable. We’ve never received a request for user data like this - and if we ever do, we’ll fight it. Sue Khan, our VP of Privacy, shares why this moment matters to everyone who menstruates. She also breaks down how Anonymous Mode protects your data so even Flo can’t link it to you. Because no one should have to choose between understanding their body and protecting their privacy. Read the full article and join the conversation. Your health. Your rights. Your voice.

We’re hiring in Vilnius! At Flo, scale is real: 75M+ monthly users, 6M paying subscribers, 400M downloads. Behind that is a platform that needs to be fast, secure, and resilient. That’s my team’s responsibility. Right now, I’m looking for two senior engineers to join us in Vilnius: Senior Cloud Security Engineer: You’ll help us build secure systems that are automated, observable, and trusted. Strong experience with cloud infrastructure, AWS, and Terraform is essential. You’ll be part of the team making sure our privacy-first platform stays that way, by design. Senior Infrastructure Engineer: This one’s for someone who knows what it takes to run infrastructure at scale. CI/CD, observability, reliability, performance. You’ve been deep in Linux, fluent in cloud, AWS, and you care about doing things the right way — not just the fast way. We’re not chasing product–market fit. We’ve found it. Now we’re engineering for what’s next. If this sounds like your kind of challenge, the links to apply are below. Let’s talk. https://lnkd.in/dHW4fCDB https://lnkd.in/dV9-HyzZ

Pass it on: period knowledge = powerful💡 Our Director of Science, Liudmila Zhaunova, is getting ready to share the results of our latest female health study with visitors at this year’s American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) annual conference. Mila will talk over our findings on menstrual health knowledge in low- and middle-income countries, as part of Flo’s Pass It On project. We found that using Flo for 3+ months had a positive impact on menstrual health knowledge. The study found that using Flo for 3+ months improved: ✅ Menstrual health knowledge ✅ Menstrual health awareness ✅ Communication confidence ✅ Quality of life ✅ Bodily appreciation ✅ Menstrual stigma ✅ Menstrual impact We know that menstrual health literacy is low across the world, but particularly so in low- and middle-income countries. Flo’s Pass It On project has given over 22 million women in 66 countries free access to Flo Premium, and we’re proud to be helping empower them with knowledge about their bodies and their health. We’re at booth ACOG #1237, we’d love to meet you and talk more! #ACOG2025 Are you a doctor?
