The Story Behind Me First

Hello I'm Dr Lena carter and my team forced me to write this section so here is the story behind Me First, I was tired of seeing the same sad story over and over. I watched as strong, capable women came into my office, their eyes filled with a pain that went beyond physical symptoms. They were lost, confused, and felt like they were losing their minds.

Then, I read the statistic: suicide rates for women between the ages of 45 and 55 were spiking. It hit me like a physical blow. I suddenly understood the quiet desperation and the despair I saw in my patients' eyes.

I knew I had to step in.

The truth is, if this was a problem men encountered, it would be a multi-billion dollar industry with a solution already. But because it's a woman's problem, no one seems to care enough to find a real solution. Big Pharma offers band-aid prescriptions that don't fix the root cause, and doctors offer vague advice to "just relax."

I refused to let another woman feel this way. I created Me First™ because women deserve more than a Band-Aid. We deserve a real solution.

Connecting the Dots

The Industry Gap

She starts looking into treatment options. What's out there? The answer is frustrating: outdated hormone therapy, unhelpful SSRIs, and dismissive medical advice like "just relax." If men experienced this, she thinks, there'd be a billion-dollar industry fixing it. But for women? Nothing that truly works.

Refusal to Stay Silent

Dr. Lena decides she won’t let another woman walk out of her office feeling broken, dismissed, or invisible. She begins assembling a team of formulators, researchers, and naturopaths to develop something real. Something that works with the female body — not against it.
