Perimenopause starts long before the hot flashes. And it can be treated earlier, too.

A letter from our founders

Mná was created after witnessing my wife, Hannah, be failed by a system I was trained to trust.

She carried our family through a pandemic, raised two children, and fought to return to herself. When life finally settled, she found her way back, sleeping well, training again, feeling strong. For the first time in years, she had energy that was hers.

Then, at 39, that changed.

Sleep unraveled. Clarity faded. The sense of self she had rebuilt began to slip. She sought care, expecting answers.

She was offered birth control or an SSRI.

As a physician, I knew there had to be another explanation.

What she was experiencing was perimenopause, earlier than many clinicians recognize, and often overlooked. The symptoms were real. The physiology was real. But the system wasn't looking for it.

Instead, it offered ways to quiet the symptoms without addressing the cause.

There is a better approach.

One that works with the body, not against it. One that begins with listening. One that recognizes that normal lab results do not negate a woman's experience.

Mná was built from that experience, together, and shaped by a shared belief that women deserve more thoughtful care.

The name comes from the Irish word for women. We chose it deliberately. In Irish culture, language carries weight and identity. Women's health deserves the same, precision, respect, and careful attention.

Mná Medical exists to provide thoughtful, physician-led care for women navigating hormonal change.

Care that is measured. Care that evolves over time. Care that takes women seriously.

You deserve better.
