Modern Fertility

A few years back, Afton Vechery, our co-founder and CEO, wanted to better understand her fertility even though she wasn’t trying for kids. As she began learning more, she realized: 1) Everyone’s fertility changes at different rates. 2) There are simple blood tests that check in on your fertility. 3) But they’re expensive ($1000+!) and not easy to get if you’re not trying to get pregnant.

Afton teamed up with co-founder Carly Leahy and the pair devoured one research paper after another, talked to hundreds of people, and heard one thing loud and clear: People with ovaries don’t have the info they need to plan ahead. Modern Fertility is here to change that.

Our flagship product is our Hormone Test that women can take at home to check in on their fertility and how it's changing with time -- and we recently expanded to offer Pregnancy & Ovulation Tests and an app, all alongside our active online community. Under the hood, we are building customizable, robust, data-driven systems from the ground up (everything from lab operations and logistics management to one-of-a-kind user experiences).
