Women are often left in the dark when it comes to their sexual health, says Rosy Wellness Founder and CEO Dr. Lyndsey Harper. The 43% of women who suffer from a sexual problem face a lack of resources about this very private issue, she says — but her Dallas-based femtech startup is doing its best to change that.
Rosy recently raised $1.2 million of a $1.5 million bridge funding round. Combined with previous seed rounds led by Austin-based True Wealth Ventures, Rosy has raised $4.2 million to date. The startup currently has 6 full-time employees and about 20 contractors, reports Dallas Innovates.
Developed by doctors and psychologists, Dr. Harper’s freemium app platform uses technology to bridge the gaps in care. Rosy Wellness offers personalized solutions for sexual wellness, along with accessible, customizable offerings that seek to revolutionize the way women and their providers think about, talk about, and treat women’s sexual problems.
Founded in 2018, Rosy has become home to the nation’s largest network of healthcare professionals that support women’s sexual health, Harper said in February, with more than 8% of the nation’s Ob/Gyns now referring their patients to Rosy, which serves over 150,000 women. Read more.
