Are you being proactive about your hormones? Svetlana Kazantseva, CEO and co-founder of Strawberry Health, shares how a combo of home testing kits and concierge support is changing the game in women’s healthcare.
With curiosity, adaptability, and relentless problem solving as her superpowers, Svetlana reinvented herself while living all over the world—from Siberia to India, the UK, and the US. What do you do when you land in San Francisco with a toddler and a newborn, and a pandemic hits? If you’re Svetlana, you start a company and a nonprofit to help women!
Building her first company, PlumThyme, Svetlana connected with young women, and recognized the widespread lack of understanding about hormone health. She pivoted and launched Strawberry Health, offering innovative at-home hormone testing and concierge service to deliver results and recommendations for follow-up care.
We discuss the importance of making comprehensive hormone tests affordable and accessible, and life-changing impacts of early hormone testing, such as discovering reduced ovarian reserves that compromise fertility or low testosterone as a root cause of fatigue and low libido.
Svetlana shares how she and her team are empowering women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s to understand their hormonal status, get treatment for underlying conditions, reach their goals, transition through menopause with ease, and age in peak health.
