"We started as a vaginal pH tracking liner for your panties that would change color with vaginal discharge. It's evolved into a period pad with microfluidic channels that capture blood, and under the pad, there's a window that shows your FSH levels."
"Users will be able to either view the results directly from the pad or take a picture with the Vivoo app to get more insights."
"Wellness tech companies are increasingly interested in bodily fluids like blood, urine, sweat, and saliva. At CES 2026, it's time to add menstrual blood to that list, too."
Vivoo introduced the FlowPad, a menstrual pad that doubles as an at-home test to measure follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) for menstruating people. The pad costs roughly $4 to $5 and can show results directly through a window on the pad or produce enhanced insights when photographed with the Vivoo app. The device uses microfluidic channels to capture menstrual blood and display FSH levels under the pad. The product evolved from a vaginal pH-tracking liner that changed color with vaginal discharge into a blood-capturing period pad. Designers faced challenges because blood dries quickly, complicating blood-based at-home testing workflows.
