About Us
Why settle for anything less than getting comfortable in your own skin?
From the founders
Antevorta was born out of a personal rollercoaster with endometriosis and early menopause. In her 30s, Annie found herself dealing with heavy bleeding, painful symptoms, and a rather embarrassing incident at work.
After skipping surgery for hormone shots, she was hit with hair loss, hot flashes, and mood swings. Fun, right? By 35, fertility was out the window, and early menopause was the new reality.
Then came the constant itch—dryness that just wouldn’t quit, leaving Annie feeling self-conscious and distracted. After trying everything under the sun—creams, injections, laser treatments, and even acupuncture down there—nothing worked.
Enter a game-changing discovery: traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). A vaginal massage with TCM herbs was the relief she didn’t know she needed. But, of course, it wasn’t sustainable—costly, temporary, and frankly, not something she could keep up with.
That’s when it hit her: these problems weren’t just hers. Women everywhere were grappling with dryness, irritation, and discomfort. Early menopause was becoming way too common, and intimate health struggles were widespread.
Annie shared this journey with her friend Sara, who grew up in Hong Kong on herbal remedies and whose life mission as an etiquette expert and Netflix star is helping women move through the world more confidently.
Sara convinced Annie to leave her high-flying career and together they started Antevorta. An intimate care brand that blends the timeless formulations of TCM with women’s needs today. Think gentle, natural care in the form of washes, wipes, and sprays to fight vaginal odor and dryness—designed to help women feel confident and comfortable in their own skin.
