Bengaluru: In every generation, a few companies emerge not merely to build successful businesses but to solve problems that society has long overlooked. Bengaluru-based Miror Therapeutics is one such organisation. By placing menopause and women’s midlife health at the forefront of healthcare innovation, the company has created a new category in India’s growing FemTech sector, changing how millions of women approach one of the most significant phases of their lives.
Established in 2020 by entrepreneur and healthcare innovator Sanjith Shetty, Miror Therapeutics has rapidly become India’s leading platform dedicated exclusively to perimenopause and menopause care. At a time when hormonal health during midlife remained under-recognised despite affecting millions of women, the company identified a critical gap and built an integrated healthcare ecosystem that combines medical expertise, digital technology and personalised support.
Rather than limiting care to occasional consultations, Miror has developed a comprehensive model that brings together specialised clinicians, nutritionists, mental health experts, digital health tools and educational resources under one platform. The objective extends beyond treating symptoms-it aims to change the way menopause is understood, discussed and managed across the country.
At the core of Miror’s approach is the belief that menopause should no longer be regarded as an inevitable period of silent suffering. Instead, it should be recognised as a major health transition that deserves timely diagnosis, scientific treatment and continuous support. By replacing myths with evidence-based medical guidance, the company is helping reshape women’s healthcare in India.
Today, Miror serves a growing community of more than 75,000 women through one of India’s most comprehensive menopause-focused digital healthcare platforms. Available in over 25 Indian languages, the platform makes specialised care accessible to women across both urban and rural regions. Users can consult experienced gynaecologists, nutritionists and mental health professionals while benefiting from AI-powered symptom tracking, personalised health insights and educational content specifically designed for Indian women.
The company’s healthcare offerings also include a range of scientifically formulated nutraceuticals aimed at supporting women’s hormonal and metabolic health during midlife. Products such as Miror Bliss and Miror Revive reflect its emphasis on preventive care by integrating nutritional science with digital healthcare solutions.
One of Miror’s landmark achievements has been the establishment of India’s first Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) Centre of Excellence. Developed in collaboration with experts from the Indian Menopause Society, the initiative provides structured, evidence-based guidance for Hormone Replacement Therapy, enabling both doctors and patients to make informed treatment decisions based on current medical research.
Beyond clinical care, Miror has also positioned menopause as an important public health issue. Working alongside the Government of Karnataka and the National Health Mission, the organisation has trained thousands of ASHA workers to recognise menopause-related symptoms in rural communities. The initiative is helping improve awareness and ensure early intervention among women who often have limited access to specialised healthcare services.
The company has also become a strong advocate for menopause-friendly workplaces.
Through partnerships with businesses and human resource leaders, Miror is encouraging organisations to recognise the impact of hormonal health on employee wellbeing, productivity and career progression. By promoting supportive workplace policies, it aims to help companies retain experienced women professionals while fostering more inclusive work environments.
Leading this transformation is founder and CEO Sanjith Shetty, whose inspiration came from personal experience after witnessing the challenges faced by his mother and wife during their perimenopausal years. Their experiences highlighted the lack of structured healthcare support available to women, motivating him to create a platform capable of improving the lives of millions.
With over two decades of entrepreneurial experience, Shetty has built businesses across multiple sectors. He holds an MBA from Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business and has an academic background in Industrial Engineering, combining strategic management with systems thinking to address complex healthcare challenges. His leadership has enabled Miror to integrate clinical expertise, digital innovation and scalable healthcare delivery into a single platform.
Apart from healthcare, Shetty serves as the Chairman and Managing Director of Soham Renewables, while his earlier ventures in IT education and e-validation reflect a diverse entrepreneurial journey. His move into women’s healthcare demonstrates how empathy and innovation can together create meaningful social impact.
He has also played active leadership roles in several global entrepreneurial organisations, including serving as President of the Entrepreneurs’ Organisation (EO) Bengaluru, Finance Chair of Young Presidents’ Organisation (YPO) Bengaluru, and as a member of the Duke University India Alumni Advisory Board.
As a speaker on healthcare innovation, artificial intelligence, preventive medicine and gender equity, Shetty has consistently argued that menopause care is not only a public health priority but also an economic necessity. He believes investment in women’s hormonal health can significantly improve workforce participation, productivity and long-term organisational performance. As one of the few male founders in India’s FemTech space, he also highlights the importance of allyship in addressing healthcare challenges affecting nearly 150 million Indian women.
Looking ahead, Miror plans to expand its healthcare ecosystem beyond menopause, offering continuous support through every stage of a woman’s life—from puberty and reproductive health to menopause and healthy ageing. The vision reflects the growing shift towards personalised, preventive and lifelong healthcare.
As digital medicine, artificial intelligence and patient-centric healthcare continue to redefine the future of medicine, Miror Therapeutics is emerging as more than just another health-tech company. It is helping transform menopause from a neglected subject into a mainstream healthcare priority through science, technology and compassionate care.
By encouraging women to view midlife as the beginning of a new chapter rather than the end of one, Miror is setting new standards for India’s FemTech ecosystem while demonstrating how purpose-driven innovation can create lasting benefits for public health and society.
