Problem
Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women worldwide, yet it takes an average of 7-10 years and visits to 7 different doctors to receive a diagnosis. This prolonged delay leaves millions of women in Germany and globally without clear answers, proper treatment, or adequate support, often feeling isolated and misunderstood by the healthcare system.

The app provides evidence-based educational content to help users understand what endometriosis is and what it is not, empowering them with knowledge. Calala guides users through the process of connecting the dots between their symptoms and the condition, helping them feel more prepared for medical appointments. By fostering a sense of community and providing reliable information, Calala aims to reduce the feeling of being alone and give users the tools they need to advocate for their health.
Target Audience
Calala's primary audience is women in Germany who are either seeking an explanation for their symptoms or have been living with an endometriosis diagnosis for years and are looking for better support and guidance.
