✊ We demand more research into #WomensHealth!

🧬 We have minimal understanding of why auto-immune #diseases are more prevalent amongst women because there is such little #research

We believe that understanding this difference could support better #medical treatment for all🚀

👸 Our gal @HillaryClinton has got #FemTech's back!

@PattyMurray we call @Meta's double standard #womenshealth censorship

We know:
⛔️ 60 FemTech companies had ads rejected
⛔️ 50% had their accounts suspended
⛔️ Labelled #FemTech content as “adult content”

We demand better! ✊

[FemTech.Live @FemtechLive]

📣 Hell yeah!!
