Forth have been nominated in the category of Innovation in Health Tech at the LaingBuisson Awards 2022 for their ground-breaking female hormone mapping product MyFORM®.

The company has been focused on addressing health issues faced by women due to the gender health gap and a lack of investment in key areas of female health – particularly hormone health.

MyFORM® was created to address the shortcomings of current tests which only measure hormones on a single day. It uses blood analysis combined with AI to map 4 key female hormones across a woman’s entire menstrual cycle – giving much deeper insight into the complex female hormone network.

The development of MyFORM® is part of the company’s mission to empower women to become experts on their own body through scientific knowledge and understanding.

Sarah Bolt, Co-Founder of Forth said: ‘’We’re honoured to have been considered for this prestigious award alongside so many amazing entries. It’s a great motivation to know that our work doesn’t go unnoticed as we continue make women’s health a priority. We’d like to thank everyone involved for our nomination and look forward to the event in November!’’

MyFORM® – Advancing Women’s Hormone Health

 MyFORM® is a ground breaking test which maps how a woman’s key hormones fluctuate throughout her entire cycle rather than on a single day, which is current clinical practice.

The finger prick home test, uses two samples of blood taken on day 14 and day 21 of a woman’s menstrual cycle. The blood samples are analysed to measure the levels of the four key female hormones – follicle stimulating hormone, luteinising hormone, oestradiol, and progesterone.

The 8 data points are combined with Forth’s proprietary AI algorithm to predict how each hormone fluctuates across a woman’s individual cycle length.

It also provides women with an ovarian responsiveness score (FORM), indicating how well their ovaries are functioning.

MyFORM® is currently only available from Forth’s website for £129.00.
