Here's why sex hormones matter
in sex education.

90% of Americans reported that sex education failed to teach them about hormone-related health issues.

This knowledge gap affects millions of women and people with ovaries and raises issues during crucial life stages, as well as the healthcare quality they receive.

Our mission is to educate people about their hormones so they can make informed decisions about their bodies.

We partnered with The Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR), a non-profit organization that shares our mission to improve women’s health through science and education. When you buy Mira merch, 30% of the proceeds go to supporting SWHR.

What drove us toward
this movement?
