Meet five women-led femtech startups that are making remarkable strides toward a healthier, more equitable future for Indian women’s healthcare. From holistic PCOS management to women’s digital health services that personalize care, these startups are revolutionizing wellness for women.
Across India, a transformative wave in women's healthcare is quietly gaining momentum in the form of fintech startups. Health concerns specific to women have often been overlooked. Issues such as PCOS, reproductive health, menstrual hygiene, sexual wellness, and maternal care have not received the attention that they should, leaving millions of Indian women without access to safe, effective, and inclusive healthcare solutions.
However, purpose-driven entrepreneurs are leveraging technology to bridge these gaps through innovative femtech startups. From digital therapeutics platforms offering holistic PCOS management and women’s digital health services that personalize care, to toxin-free personal and baby-care products, these ventures are reimagining wellness at every stage of life. They are also educating the next generation through puberty awareness programs and creating safe, stigma-free spaces for sexual health.
Valued at $1.23 billion in 2023 and projected to reach $3.87 billion by 2030, India’s femtech market reflects a growing movement that is being helmed by women founders. By combining technology, education, and empathy, these women-led startups are restoring agency, dignity, and accessibility, redefining how India cares for women at every stage of life.
In a society where conversations around menstruation, fertility, or menopause were long considered taboo, femtech has become a voice of empowerment. Women-led ventures are not just addressing healthcare needs; they are building ecosystems of awareness, access, and acceptance.
This is more than entrepreneurship; it’s an uprising of belief, collaboration, and change where women empower women and redefine what wellness means in modern India.
