Our Story
FemFacts was founded in 2018 with a simple mission: to make reliable, evidence-based women's health information accessible to everyone, regardless of background or location.
We recognized that women often struggle to find trustworthy health resources that address their unique needs throughout different life stages. From adolescence to menopause and beyond, women's health concerns evolve, and we wanted to create a comprehensive resource that evolves with them.
What started as a small blog has grown into a trusted platform serving millions of women worldwide with articles, guides, and expert insights on a wide range of health topics.
