The Alliance

One platform. Everything you need.

Our story begins with lived experience. After eight years undiagnosed with PCOS, our founder, Inika Mehra, transformed her personal struggles into a global movement.

What started as one voice has grown into an alliance of practitioners, students, and advocates working across countries to transform the future of women's health. Together, we are rewriting the future of healthcare with compassion, equity, and whole-person healing.
