Kate Tolo’s $15,700 'Techno Tampon' Aims to Fill Gap in Female Cardiovascular Health Data
Kate Tolo, partner of longevity advocate Bryan Johnson, is using a $15,700 research-grade device to track nighttime clitoral blood flow, aiming to identify early signs of heart disease and sexual dysfunction in women. While Johnson uses a $275 wearable for similar vascular monitoring, Tolo’s setup requires a wired probe and laptop, highlighting a significant disparity in female health technology. Experts note that while the concept mirrors male erectile dysfunction testing, clinical validation for women remains lacking.
