Not an ending. A new direction.

Arabic calls menopause سنّ اليأس, the age of despair. Samt means direction: an Arabic-first companion to understand what is changing, and know what to ask your doctor.

Email only. We never ask for health information here.

Does this sound familiar?

  • You wake at 3 AM with a racing heart, unsure why.
  • A hot flash interrupts a meeting, or arrives mid-prayer.
  • Your mood shifts unpredictably.
  • Your body is changing, and no one told you this was a normal part of the transition.

You are not imagining it, and you are not alone. Samt is here to help you understand what is happening and guide you forward.

Zenith, the highest point of the sky, comes from one Arabic word: سَمْت.

Many doctors in our region now call it سنّ الأمل, the age of hope.

  2. Understand

  3. Prepare

    Take one page to your appointment: your words, the days you noted, your questions.

  4. Decide with your doctor

    Talk your options through with your doctor. The decision is yours to make together.

One ordinary day, with Samt.

  1. Awake since three.

    Samt starts the day with one question: how is today going? Answer with a tap, or leave it.

  2. Note it in your words.

    Note how you feel over the weeks, in your own words, and see it laid out on a calendar. No scores, no labels.

  3. A flush mid-meeting.

    Read what's happening in your body and mind, in Arabic, in plain words, with the source behind each answer.

  4. Thursday's appointment.

    See what the evidence says, and arrive at your appointment with the right questions.

Every stage, in plain words.

Menopause is not one moment. It is a transition occurring in three distinct stages.

Perimenopause

The transitional years when hormones begin to shift. Periods become irregular and physical symptoms often commence.

Wherever you are, Samt is with you. This is education, not a diagnosis.

Menopause touches the whole family.

It's for the daughters, partners, and friends who want to understand and support her. Share Samt with someone you love.

Most women reach menopause without a map.

77%

were unaware of the contraindications of hormone therapy. Source

Every claim here can be checked.

Every claim we make is educational and carries a citation. Trials of digital menopause tools report better symptom management and better-informed decisions, and that literature is what Samt is built on.

Questions, answered.

Is Samt a medical service? Does it diagnose me?

No. Samt is a health education and self-tracking tool, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, it does not treat, and it does not replace your doctor. What it does is help you understand what you are experiencing, and know what to ask the specialist.

Where is my data stored? Is it private?

Your health data is encrypted and stored on servers inside the UAE, and it is not sent abroad. We ask only for your email to sign you in, we never sell data, and your record is shared with no one unless you choose to share it.

Is Samt available in Arabic?

Yes. Samt was written in Arabic first and designed around it, rather than translated into it. English sits alongside.

Who is Samt for?

Women in perimenopause, menopause and postmenopause, and the people who want to support them. Samt is for adults, 18 and over.

How much does it cost?

Samt is still in development, so there is no price yet. Join the waitlist and we'll share pricing and early access when there is something to share. Your email is all we ask for.

When does the app launch?

We're building it now. The fastest way to know the moment it's ready is the waitlist.

Hear the moment it opens.

Leave your email and we'll tell you the moment Samt is ready. That's all we'll ever ask for, and never health information.
