Sin Reglas: Redesigning Menopause for Women Across Latin America


Listen Later

đź“‹ Episode Summary:
In this bold and eye-opening episode of FemTech Focus, Dr. Brittany Barreto is joined by Gabriela Rojas, Founder and CEO of Sin Reglas, the first Spanish-speaking digital platform dedicated to comprehensive menopause care across Latin America. With two master’s degrees from Harvard and a career rooted in law, health policy, and women’s rights, Gabriela is on a mission to dismantle the silence and stigma surrounding menopause.

Gabriela shares her personal journey through perimenopause, the lack of awareness and care she encountered, and how that inspired her to create Sin Reglas. From digital self-assessments and peer coaching to workplace policy reform and public health advocacy, Gabriela breaks down the three-pronged approach Sin Reglas uses to redesign menopause for women from all backgrounds and regions.

Together, Brittany and Gabriela explore the urgent need for localized, culturally competent menopause care, why menopause is a workplace equity issue, and how systemic change—including legal reform—is essential to supporting women through this critical life stage.

🧠 What You’ll Learn:

  • Why most women in Mexico don’t realize they’re in perimenopause—and how the Menotest is changing that

  • The results of Mexico’s first national study on menopause perception and impact

  • How Sin Reglas combines digital care, workplace inclusion, and public policy to drive change

  • What it means to bring a gender lens to menopause in both healthcare and employment

  • Practical steps for companies to support menopausal employees—from surveys to uniforms

  • The cultural and structural barriers unique to LatAm—and why innovation must be local
