Why We Created WUKA Cycle Care Gummies
We have exciting news! And if you follow us on socials, you might already know what we’re about to announce - but let’s have a drumroll anyway… introducing brand new WUKA Cycle Care Vitamin Gummies!
We are so bloody proud to bring this launch to you - and with International Women’s Day just around the corner, the timing really couldn’t be better. So without further ado, here’s everything you need to know about the hottest new launch here at WUKA, and we we created our brand new range!
WUKA cares - listening to our customers
From the moment we produced our very first pair of reusable period pants, WUKA has been a brand dedicated to helping women and girls navigate through the various life stages we face. We’ve always believed in solutions that are not only science-backed, but also rooted in the experiences of our community. We care. We listen.
And when we read the results of our 2023 Annual Customer Survey, we know it was time to act.
65% of you told us that you experience heavy periods. We already knew this - it’s why we created our Super Heavy period pants, and why our Stretch™ for Super Heavy Flow literally flew off the shelves when it launched last year.
We know that heavy bleeding is the reality many of you. 75% of you also told us you grapple with period pain too, and 86% of you are concerned with fatigue and tiredness. Yet despite these staggeringly high percentages, only 20% of you told us you use period pain patches or supplements.
This led us to ask, why is there such a gap between the struggles people face and the solutions they’re using?
The hidden health crisis women face
It’s not just a period. It’s not just heavy bleeding, cramps and bloating. Let’s break it down.
- Heavy periods can lead to iron deficiency, a condition that studies show affects 1 million women in the UK and results in approximately 57,000 emergency hospital admissions annually (source). The symptoms of low iron, including extreme fatigue, dizziness, and overall weakness, are commonly accepted as normal menstruation symptoms. But they really don’t have to be.
- Similarly, 1 in 6 adults in the UK have low vitamin D levels (source), affecting immune function, bone health, and overall well-being. Additionally, 40% of women experience PMS symptoms (source), with 5–8% suffering from severe forms like Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD). Yet despite these figures, only around 20% of women suffering with PMS symptoms will seek medical help. This suggests it’s a huge underreported and untreated problem.
For far too long, menstrual health has been neglected. Women have bee told to simply ‘put up with it.’ But at WUKA, we refuse to accept that narrative. We spent two years working with women’s health experts to develop a range of high-quality, accessible, and effective nutritional solutions that truly support women’s health. Because it’s time to end this hidden health crisis. It’s time to listen to women.
Our CEO, Ruby, sums it all up perfectly:
“Having supported over 1 million customers with WUKA leakproof apparel, we know that leaks and odours are just one part of the menstrual health puzzle. Women’s health has long been neglected, with symptoms of menstruation often dismissed or overlooked. WUKA Cycle Care was developed in direct response to the voices of thousands of women and girls who are desperate for real, science-backed solutions.
Launching this range in time for International Women’s Day is a statement—a reminder that every woman deserves to be seen, heard, and supported in her health journey.”
