SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In honor of Women's Health Month, ŌURA, maker of Oura Ring, the most accurate and trusted smart ring, today launched Be the Expert in You, a month-long, multi-channel campaign dedicated to giving every woman's body a voice. The Finnish company has been steadily adding to its slate of women's health features and research since 2021 and, throughout the month of May, will be introducing additional features, innovative studies, and personal stories from both employees and members to promote body literacy for women of all ages. Be the Expert in You marks the latest development in Oura’s commitment to delivering products and research that are designed for women and provide a holistic approach to health. This is the most recent of many women's health investments from the company, including the launch of its Pregnancy Insights feature, the publication of trailblazing fertility research with the University of California, Berkeley, and the first wearable integration with FDA-cleared birth control app Natural Cycles. “Female health conditions receive only one percent of global healthcare research funding, which has created a significant knowledge gap that hinders women from fully understanding basic information about their bodies,” said Dr. Neta Gotlieb, product manager for women’s health at Oura
