The joint aches, brain fog, sleep loss, anxiety. You do not have to go through it all.
All of this could be perimenopause
In midlife, your hormones begin to shift. And it shows up in small ways.
- “Suddenly I’m bleeding more. Why?”
- “I’m watching TV and I get hot and panicky.”
- “No one notices the mental fatigue.”
- “My body is suffering. Can you three just compare notes?”
- Women also tell us their reports say normal, but they don’t feel normal.
We work with you to find out what is behind it, and manage it with clinical and lifestyle care.
15 weeks to manage the symptoms
First, we find out where you are starting from: your tests, your symptoms, your days. Then your doctors and care concierge help you build habits, one at a time, that make this change easier.Your doctors and care concierge help you build habits, one at a time, that make this change easier.
Day 1: we get to know you
A detailed onboarding where you tell us what has changed, and everything around it: your cycle, sleep, food, work and history. You also get a score for each symptom today, so later you can see it change.
- What has changed
- Your cycle
- Sleep
- Food and movement
- Your history
- What you want
PanelDay 2: blood tests made for you, done at home
The Yellow Panel: a blood panel customised to you, collected at home. It checks your hormones. It also checks your thyroid, iron and vitamins, because when these are low, they cause the same symptoms.
Day 4: your team of clinicians goes through everything before you meet
A GP and a gynaecologist both read your results and history, and agree on a plan for you. When your case calls for it, a specialist looks at your plan too.
Day 5: you meet your doctors and get your plan
What is driving how you feel, and what to do about it: the habits to start, any supplement a result points to, and a referral if you need one.
Weeks 2 to 14: you follow the protocol, and we track it with you
You get a weekly check-in and a care concierge for the hard days. Your doctors keep up with how you are doing. Halfway through, you score your symptoms again, so you can see what is getting better.
Your activity and sleep sync from the Health app on iPhone.
Week 15: we score your symptoms again
The same scales as week 1, side by side, so you see what has changed. Then we look at what worked and what comes next.
We can’t skip the change.

Questions you may have (FAQs)
It is for women in midlife, about 35 to 55+, who have begun to feel symptoms and want to know where they come from: sleep, mood, brain fog, irregular periods or joint aches.
We help you through the move into perimenopause with real answers: the right tests, and doctors who explain what they mean for you. For menopause and post-menopause, we work with you to manage symptoms through clinical and lifestyle interventions.
Women tell us that they've tried to talk to doctors, take supplements, try a few things. But, they still feel off. They're still guessing what's best. If that sounds like you, then what we're building at Yellow is for you.
If you are pregnant or in active treatment for cancer, speak to a specialist who can see you right away. We're yet to build for those cases.
Yes. Your blood tests, access to the team of specialist clinicians, and a care concierge are included in the price. If your care protocol recommends supplements or subscriptions to fitness-related activities, those are not included.
It depends on two things: what your doctor finds, and what you want. Our doctors are trained to prescribe, when required.
However, it starts with a detailed intake and blood panel so that you know all your options.
If you decide otherwise, we build a plan around that.
In most cases, no. During your detailed intake, we ask you what she has recommended and what has helped.
If it fits what your results and symptoms show, we work alongside her. With your consent, we send her a summary of your results and your plan, or you can take them to her yourself.
This applies to other practitioners you may be talking to as well.
The magic is not in the blood test. Symptoms of perimenopause and menopause cannot be understood only through blood work. We use methods of symptom science to do that.
If you've recently gotten tested, we see your reports and recommend what is missing.
If you got a comprehensive test in the last 3 months, we look at that along with the intake to design a useful, actionable plan for you.
One that helps ease your symptoms.
Not always. Send us your recent reports before you start. Our panel looks at thyroid, oestradiol, FSH, LH, prolactin, testosterone, SHBG, iron, vitamin B12, vitamin D, blood sugar and heart health (some only when your age, cycle or symptoms call for them).
If your reports already have these, we use them. If any are missing, we test only those.
We are live PAN India. However, when you sign up, you will be requested to share your pin code. If by any chance we're not available in the area, we will inform you and figure out an alternative.
Only you and the care team reading your file. Once you sign up, you get access to a dashboard that saves all this data. And, gives a read-only access to your care team.
No. Your employer sees nothing. It stays between you and your care team.
In the beginning, it can take a few hours a week. However, once you've completed the intake, the blood collection, and your first consultation, it will take as long as you need it.
Our care concierge doesn't demand time from you for coordination or information. We will only nudge you to invest time into lifestyle interventions around nutrition and movement.
Women tell us that plans fail when they need them to change their lifestyle completely. We've built the programme to be different.
The first 20 of you who trust us will help us prove something we believe: with the right people, your hormones can be on your side, and these can be the best decades of your life.
A 15-week hormonal health programme for women in midlife: perimenopause, menopause, and the years beyond.
