Opening up to your doctor isn't easy. Nella can help. A modern speculum every woman deserves.

🌎 Today is World Menopause Day — a reminder that menopause is a universal experience, yet one that continues to be under-researched, underfunded, and underserved.

💡 early 1 billion women worldwide are in menopause.
💡 Yet, less than 2% of medical research funding is dedicated to women’s reproductive health, including menopause.

At Nella, we’re raising awareness for better research, better tools, and better care — so women don’t have to suffer in silence.

Because your health, your comfort, and your voice matter at every stage of life. 💜

👉 Nella Maternity Kits support you through every exam
👉 Our speculum was created by women, for women
👉 Because pelvic care should always feel gentle, even during labor prep

With Nella, you can focus on welcoming your little one with ease and confidence. 💛

After menopause, many women think pelvic exams are behind them. But here’s the truth:

✨ They’re still essential.
Even after your periods stop, pelvic exams help doctors check for:
✔️ Cervical and ovarian cancers
✔️ Uterine changes
✔️ Postmenopausal bleeding and abnormalities

Regular exams are about more than just prevention — they’re about peace of mind and long-term health.

At Nella, we believe you shouldn’t have to choose between your comfort and your care. That’s why we redesigned the speculum and have the Nella Comfort Kit - to support you at every stage of life. 💜

It’s true: you don’t need a Pap every year.
But you do need an annual pelvic exam.

Here’s why ⬇️
Doctors check for:
✔️ Ovarian cysts
✔️ Fibroids
✔️ Vaginal infections
✔️ STIs
✔️ Prolapse & more

And yes — many of those exams still require a speculum.

That’s why Nella matters: annual care shouldn’t come with annual discomfort.

💳 You’ve seen it on our site: FSA/HSA Eligible. But what does that actually mean?

✔️ FSA (Flexible Spending Account) and HSA (Health Savings Account) funds are pre-tax dollars you set aside for medical expenses.
✔️ If you have one of these accounts, you can use it to purchase the Nella Comfort Kit.
✔️ That means your kit is covered with funds already reserved for your healthcare.

✨ Translation: More comfort, less out-of-pocket stress.

Take charge of your health, your comfort, and your care — all while using the benefits you already have. 💜

🌸 Women with endometriosis face unique challenges when it comes to menopause.

A large study of nearly 279,000 women across multiple countries (The Guardian) found that those with endometriosis are:
✔️ 7x more likely to undergo surgical menopause
✔️ 2x more likely to experience early menopause
✔️ Likely to reach natural menopause slightly earlier too

Why it matters: early menopause can impact fertility, bone health, heart health, and overall quality of life.

✨ What you can do:
– Be proactive about regular checkups
– Know the early symptoms to watch for
– Advocate for comfort and care at every stage

At Nella, we believe your exams should be as comfortable as possible, so you never put off the care you deserve. 💜

Is the Nella Speculum clean and safe for your OB/GYN to use? Short answer: Yes. Absolutely.

✅ Each Nella Speculum is manufactured clean and individually packaged—just like the speculums already used in hospitals and clinics.

When you order a Nella Comfort Kit, the speculum comes sealed in its own packaging. Keep it sealed, bring it to your appointment, and it’s ready for use—clean and safe.

If a clinician tells you they won’t use it because it’s not sterile, that’s not accurate.
💡 Nella is Clinically Validated and designed to meet clinical standards.

And if your comfort is dismissed? That’s a red flag. You deserve to be heard, respected, and comfortable.

Your body. Your comfort. Your call.

Nearly 1 billion women will experience menopause by the end of 2025

Yet:
💡 99% of preclinical aging studies ignore menopause (Harvard Medical School, 2023)
💡 Less than 2% of research funding goes to female reproductive health — menopause included (McKinsey/WEF, 2024)

This isn’t just a funding gap — it’s a comfort gap, a knowledge gap, and a health equity gap.

At Nella, we’re pushing for change. Because women deserve more research, more innovation, and more comfort in their healthcare.

✨ This October, during Menopause Awareness Month, let’s raise our voices to close the gap.

“It’s narrow, sleek design makes it much more comfortable for patients.” – Alexandra Rodrigues, MD, MBA, FACOG, OB/GYN | Cleveland, OH

At Nella, we’re proud to partner with clinicians who share our mission: putting patient comfort first without compromising care. 💜

Because when doctors choose better tools, patients get better experiences.

When went through years of fertility treatments, she experienced firsthand how outdated and uncomfortable the speculum was.

As she told
✨ “I couldn’t believe that such a foundational product in women’s health had evaded the drive for advancement.”

That realization fueled her mission to reimagine one of the most dreaded tools in gynecology — not just for herself, but for women everywhere.

Today, Nella is leading the movement for modern, patient-centered care. 💜

Because women deserve comfort. Women deserve innovation. Women deserve better.

10/01/2025

October is Menopause Awareness Month—a reminder of a reality too many women face in silence.

💡 Did you know:
✔️ 1 billion women will be in menopause this year
✔️ Less than 1% of healthcare research is focused on menopause
✔️ Symptoms can last up to a decade

At Nella, we believe women deserve more. More research. More advocacy. More comfort at every stage—from your first exam to your post-menopausal years.

This October, let’s raise our voices together to close the research gap and bring comfort back into women’s health.

✨ Because women deserve better than outdated tools and overlooked care.
