How Solv Wellness Is Helping Close The Gap In Women’s Health
Challenging the stigma surrounding pelvic health by offering science-backed solutions.
Throughout history, science and society have largely ignored women’s health, and there is a stigma around women’s sexual health, especially when it comes to aging. Solv Wellness is a disruptive company that is seeking to rewrite that narrative. It is helping to reduce the stigma surrounding one area in particular: pelvic health.
By providing accessible, science-backed solutions for pelvic health, Solv Wellness is empowering women at midlife and beyond to take control of their health journey and feel comfortable and confident in this next phase of their lives.
Lack of Quality Resources for Women’s Health Needs
Anyone can walk into a hospital, doctor’s office, or urgent care center and expect to be treated. The generally accessible nature of healthcare services as a whole obscures a significant and persistent pitfall in the modern healthcare system. There is a lack of information, education, and easily accessible effective treatments for female-specific health needs, especially for menopausal care.
There are multiple reasons for this disparity. One is a lack of research. For example, apart from oncology, only 1% of healthcare research investment in 2020 went toward female-specific conditions. In addition, the area of feminine health is severely under-emphasized. Male-dominated medical research has consistently de-prioritized and stigmatized female-specific concerns, such as reproductive or pelvic health, which has led to a gender gap in medical research.
Solv Wellness: Redefining the Standards for Women’s Healthcare
Solv Wellness is a company that strives to elevate women through science. Right on the Solv Wellness website, the company cuts to the heart of its mission with the statement, “We solve problems. Especially the ones you might not want to talk about.”
The Unnecessary “Secret” of Pelvic Dysfunction
One of the most common conditions of pelvic health for women at midlife and beyond is Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM). GSM comes with many symptoms such as dryness, increased risk of vaginal and urinary tract infections, painful sex, and urinary pain and urgency.
Women should feel comfortable bringing these symptoms to their healthcare providers. However, studies have shown that these conditions come with varying levels of stigma. One report, for instance, found that just 6.8% of physicians are comfortable managing menopause symptoms. Tragically, often it is the stigma itself — not a lack of understanding and desire for better health — that often delays women in seeking care sooner.
Solv Wellness Is Empowering Women to Address Pelvic Health With Confidence
Solv Wellness is approaching the area of pelvic health with a fresh and invigorating mindset. It is bucking the status quo and attempting to shine a confident, shame-free light on this common and important area with products that specifically address women’s pelvic health.
CEO and co-founder Terri Wade brings energy to this vision. Her passion has helped push the company into prominence and has charted a course to not only create products that support pelvic health but to advocate for women’s midlife health in general.
That’s where EVP and co-founder Kevin Wade comes into the picture. He is focused on clinical development and pursuing the female-focused clinical evidence required to create quality products with ingredients that work.
In partnership with esteemed healthcare providers and researchers, Solv Wellness has developed a line of science-backed pelvic health products that help put women back in the driver’s seat when it comes to their health. The products are designed to work together to address common signs and symptoms of GSM.
Solv Wellness’s flagship product, Ellura, is the most effective UTI supplement on the market. It is backed by 21 clinical studies demonstrating its efficacy and is trusted by healthcare providers and women alike.
Solv Wellness Is Shining a Spotlight on Women’s Health
Women’s health continues to be an underserved area. Companies like Solv Wellness are helping through a commitment to shine a light on women’s health.
From cutting-edge research to clinically proven products, Solv Wellness is using science to arm women with the tools and knowledge they need to confidently advocate for themselves and feel better in their bodies.
