Juno Bio are working to close the gender health gap. Women’s health research has been sidelined for too long, and vaginal health is badly in need of better diagnosis and treatment. 

The vaginal microbiome is the community of microbes and bacteria that naturally live in the vagina. Variances in the vaginal microbiome are thought to have implications for women’s health conditions, such as recurrent bacterial-vaginosis or a higher risk of contracting an STI, and even preterm birth and infertility. But a historical lack of research into women’s health issues means the vaginal microbiome and its implications on women’s health are still a black box.

Juno Bio have developed a breakthrough test that decodes your microbes while powering up research. Women who pay to be screened will receive a test kit in the post. They then carry out a sample gathering procedure at home and return it by post to Juno Bio for analysis. Once the sample has been processed, the user is invited to log in online and view the results, with the option to book a one-on-one call with a Juno Bio “vaginal coach” to discuss the data.
