Personalized hormonal healthcare
Our mission is to create a medical system that puts hormones center stage—transforming the future of healthcare for people with cycles forever.
Where it all began
Shardi Nahavandi, our CEO and founder, couldn’t drink water, she couldn’t see, her hair was falling out. Initially, doctors suspected bowel cancer and she underwent dozens of tests. Once cancer was ruled out, her doctors dismissed her symptoms as stress.
Shardi knew something else was going on. Set on uncovering the answers herself she quit her job to pursue master’s degrees in Health Technology and Edincronology. Countless research papers later, she found the answer— she had a hormone imbalance.
Ignited by her passion to help women understand their hormones better, Shardi started Tuune.
