Flowspace highlights how hormonal shifts can significantly impact cardiovascular risk in midlife and beyond, especially as estrogen levels decline and traditional lipid profiles become less protective. The piece underscores the importance of proactive screening and personalized care in this transitional life stage.

Dr. Melissa Loseke emphasizing why midlife bloodwork, beyond standard panels, matters for women navigating perimenopause and menopause.

The ultimate problem-solver, Katy Whalen joined forces with her husband’s online platform, Joi + Blokes, giving women nationwide hormonal and wellness support.

In 2025, the women’s health market advanced on multiple fronts, fueled by increased recognition of research gaps, strong funding pledges, and regulatory shifts. A record $2.5 billion commitment from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation over five years aimed at transforming women’s health R&D — particularly in underfunded areas like menstrual, gynecological, sexual, and maternal health — was among the year’s most significant funding news.

Joi + Blokes, a national precision medicine and telehealth platform, announced the publication of a peer-reviewed clinical study in collaboration with Brigham Young University (BYU) that evaluates the outcomes of its proprietary, biomarker-guided precision medicine protocols. The study was published in the scientific journal Life and assesses changes in key inflammatory biomarkers among adults aged 40 to 69.

“This study evaluates a precision medicine framework applied in real clinical practice,” said Paul R. Reynolds, PhD, Professor of Cell Biology and Physiology at Brigham Young University and lead author.

In this first-hand account, Jake Heyen chronicles his experience with Blokes’ comprehensive 110-biomarker test, detailing how this deep diagnostic approach uncovered the hidden biological factors behind persistent health issues like low energy, poor sleep, and inflammation.

The article explains the testing process, personalized consultation, and tailored action plan, emphasizing how data-driven diagnostics helped Jake move beyond guesswork toward targeted lifestyle, nutrition, and recovery changes. This narrative highlights the value of clinician-guided health optimization and why biomarker testing may be worth trying for anyone struggling to make progress with traditional wellness routines.

As we move into 2026, Dr. Jaclyn Tolentino sees a clear shift happening in wellness. One that feels quieter, more grounded, and frankly, easier. Did I just hear you exhale with relief? Same. “More information doesn’t always mean better health.”

We’re moving away from extremes and toward simplicity. Away from hacks and toward foundations. Away from “doing more” and toward doing what actually supports the body long term.

Here’s what Dr. Jaclyn Tolentino sees is in, what needs to be left behind, and why this matters for real life.
