Problem
Many individuals experience a frustrating trial-and-error process when selecting a birth control pill, often enduring unwanted side effects as they sample different formulations. Traditional clinical trials may not fully represent the diverse experiences of all users, leading to gaps in understanding individual responses to oral contraceptives.

By analyzing self-reported data from a large cohort of pill users, Pill0 identifies patterns and predicts potential side effects based on individual characteristics and medical history. Users complete a detailed questionnaire, and the platform generates a report with insights into potential side effects and suitable options. Pill0 aims to empower individuals to advocate for their reproductive health and have more productive discussions with their physicians.
