Our approach
Precision Prevention. Built on Evidence.
The menopause transition affects multiple body systems at once, while care is organised by speciality: cardiology, endocrinology, neurology, psychiatry, each seeing its own part. Scita is built to hold the whole picture, and to be open about how it does it.
01
What does Scita use, and what does she get back?
She starts with what she knows, and adds more when she wants to. Nothing is asked before it is needed, every step says why it asks, and each level gives something back: to understand, to do herself, and to take to her doctor.

Personalised Scita · in pilot development
To begin
What she knows today
Her symptoms named back, with what research says.
She can do herself
Evidence-based self-care in general terms, with the reasons, and a chat for her questions.
More detail
- She shares
- Her symptoms in her own words, what matters most to her, and her age.
- She understands
- Her symptoms named back, with what research says about them.
- For her doctor
- Comes at the next level, once there is a picture to share.
When she wants
Her history
Her first picture, and a summary for her doctor.
She can do herself
Her first personal step: the one that matters most for her, small enough for her hardest week.
More detail
- She shares
- Her periods, her medical and family history, and the medicines and supplements she takes. Each part can wait.
- She understands
- Her first picture: what fits perimenopause, what may have another cause, what is uncertain, and what would make it more precise.
- For her doctor
- A doctor-ready summary, with the tests that would make the picture more precise.
Later, if she chooses
Measurements and results
A more precise picture, with her own results.
She can do herself
Guidance that is more personal: tuned to her results, her week and how she likes to be guided.
More detail
- She shares
- Test results she has or gets after seeing her doctor, measurements such as blood pressure, genetic results, and data from a wearable.
- She understands
- A more precise picture, recalculated with her own results.
- For her doctor
- An updated summary, with her results read together.
02
How does it reach an explanation?
- Every link has a source. Each symptom is linked to the conditions it can point to, and each link rests on a named source. The evidence is graded with GRADE, the standard method for weighing medical research, across 7,500+ peer-reviewed studies: each study is weighed by its design, its size and its risk of bias.
- The rules decide, not AI. The clinical determinations are made by fixed, deterministic rules: the same answers give the same result. AI is used to talk with her in plain language and puts the rules’ results into words. It cannot change them.
- It says how sure it is. When a pattern is clear, Scita says so plainly. When it is not, it says why: the signal is too thin, or it points two ways. What is established and what is still emerging are told apart in the sentence itself.
A worked example
Hanne, 52
- What she reports
- Night sweats, broken sleep, exhaustion every afternoon. Her husband hears her stop breathing at night.
- What it fits
- Sleep apnoea fits all four. Perimenopause fits three of four. It does not have to be one or the other.
- What is uncertain
- No questionnaire or blood test can show sleep apnoea. Only a sleep study can, and her doctor decides whether one makes sense.
Hanne is an example woman, not a real one.
What Scita actually does
One symptom can have several explanations
The same symptom can signal perimenopause, a cardiovascular risk, a thyroid condition, or several at once. Scita maps across them to identify what actually needs attention.
Maybe perimenopause. Maybe something else. Often both.
This is the clinical step that fragmented care misses and wellness trackers cannot offer.

Scita meno, the map of midlife symptoms
38 symptoms and 15 possible explanations, joined by 140 links, each with its named medical source. For every symptom it shows what else it can be, and which explanations an ordinary blood test can check.
Self-help
A next step that fits your life
For self-care, Scita gives evidence-informed levers adapted to who she is, what her day already demands, and what she can realistically do. The aim is not generic advice or all-or-nothing change, but a first action she can actually live with.
Scita adapts how it guides you to how you prefer to be guided: how much detail you want, how direct, and when. Guidance also flexes to the capacity you have on the day, a version for your strongest week and one for your hardest, so a setback becomes information, not failure.
Every step can be said in one sentence, done tomorrow without buying anything, and kept in your worst week.
The same step, two weeks
- In a strong week
- Two 30-minute strength sessions.
- In a hard week
- Ten squats while the kettle boils, once. That still counts.
An example of the form guidance takes, not advice for you.
You follow through, because Scita follows up.

What has been checked, and what not yet?
Scita meno, the free map
38 symptoms, 15 possible explanations and 140 links, each checked against its named source, with every source listed openly. Its clinical review by Dr Jonas Richthoff is under way; until it is done, the map says “Not clinically reviewed”.
Scita, the personal service
The doctor summary and daily guidance, in pilot development. The clinical logic and safety rules are reviewed by our Clinical Lead. Rules on hormone therapy are written from the Danish and Swedish national guidance, rule by rule.
Clinical evaluation
A clinical evaluation with our research partners, toward MDR Class IIa certification, the clinical standard wellness tools are not designed to meet.
Who reviews the clinical logic
Dr Jonas Richthoff, MD, PhD
- Senior physician, Ljungby Hospital, Sweden
- PhD in Reproductive Medicine, Lund University
- Clinical Lead, Scita Health

Who decides?
Scita describes patterns. It never gives a diagnosis and never suggests a dose.
She decides
What to share, what to try, and what to take to her doctor. At work, she decides what to tell, and she can ask for changes without giving a reason.
Her doctor decides
Which tests make sense, what the diagnosis is, and what treatment fits. Hormone therapy is always the decision of the doctor she meets.
When it cannot wait
If something needs a clinician soon, Scita says so first, in words a clinician has approved, and the conversation stays open.
