The collaboration combines medical expertise with a holistic view of women’s lives in midlife.
Berlin/Paris, 01.09.2026 — Poor sleep, brain fog, exhaustion, or physical changes — and, at some point, the question: what exactly is happening to me? For many women, perimenopause still begins with a long search for answers — and all too often with more information than clarity. The female empowerment platform Belle&Yell and the digital health platform hermaid want to change that together. With their new partnership, they combine well‑grounded support around perimenopause and menopause with a holistic view of women’s lived reality
Belle&Yell looks at this reality across four areas: health, career, finances, and life. hermaid brings digital health expertise, medical know‑how, and practical support for women in perimenopause and menopause. The hermaid app helps women better understand symptoms, recognize connections, and access specialized support.
“Women don’t need more information. There’s enough of that. They need orientation and answers they can actually use. And solutions that consider not just isolated symptoms, but their entire lived reality. That’s exactly why hermaid is such a good fit for Belle&Yell,” says Regula Bathelt, founder of Belle&Yell.
Not just for women, but with women
At the heart of the collaboration is direct dialogue with women. Belle&Yell and hermaid want to better understand which questions truly matter to them, where guidance is missing, and what kind of support they want for this life stage. Over time, this will lead to joint offerings that consistently reflect women’s experiences and needs.
“The gender health gap also exists because no one asks what women really need. With Belle&Yell, we want to change that — through real conversations with the women at the center of it.” — Anne Feldt / Susanne Feldt / Rajesh Sharma, hermaid
Because a woman in menopause doesn’t suddenly become only a patient. She works, makes financial decisions, maintains relationships, may care for children or parents, plans her future — and still has a lot ahead of her.
