What is The Vivana Journey for?
Most women discover menopause while they are going through it, often in the urgency of a disruptive symptom. The Vivana Journey offers the opposite: learning calmly, in small steps, how the female body really works after 40, before you need it, or during, but without the panic.
The journey is made up of eight progressive levels. Each one covers a specific area: the cycle and perimenopause, hormones and their respective roles, vasomotor symptoms, sleep, bone and muscle, the heart, nutrition, and finally the treatment decision. At each level, a few questions let you check what you have understood and, above all, correct the most stubborn received ideas, the ones that have been circulating for twenty years and that cost women dearly.
What are the answers based on?
Every question in the journey comes from the same editorial process as our articles and videos: an identified scientific source, verified on PubMed, and careful wording that distinguishes what is demonstrated from what is only suggested. When the data are weak or debated, we say so rather than settling the question. Our editorial method details this requirement.
So you will find neither miracle promises nor diagnoses here. A game does not replace a doctor, and no score obtained on this page says anything about your personal health. The goal is more modest and more useful: to give you the vocabulary and the reference points that make the conversation with a health professional much more effective.
How to play
The journey runs directly in your browser, with no sign-up and no account creation. Your progress is stored locally on your device: it is not sent to us and we do not look at it. You can stop at any time and pick up again later, climb the tiers in order or come back to a level you have already passed to review.
If a topic interests you further, each theme in the journey matches a long-form piece on the site: our in-depth articles to read, our videos to listen to, and our assessments to take stock of your situation.
