Prevention by early detection

The Problem

Lymphedema is a major side-effect from breast cancer treatment. Discover MyLymphCare home monitoring and how we can decrease risk of lymphedema.

There is a gap between research and what we offer breast cancer survivors at risk of lymphedema today. Enabling early detection and compression treatment will have a significant positive impact on the lives of millions of breast cancer survivors.​

Lymphedema is a cost for society

<50 Mio. breast cancer survivors - globally ​

Breast cancer survivors represent a large group of women that demand better solutions for a life after cancer​.

Survival rate of breast Cancer >90% and >75% after 10 years ​

Survival rates have increased and thus many more women live long lives after surviving breast cancer dealing with late-effects​.

<20% living with the consequences of Lymphedema

More than 20% of all breast cancer survivors are living with a diagnosis of lymphedema today.

On a mission for early detection and prevention of chronic lymphedema - the new normal

Cacto Health is building MyLymphCare, the first at-home monitoring solution for breast cancer–related lymphedema. Today, too many breast cancer survivors face lifelong complications and stigma because lymphedema is detected late. Reshaping the use of traditional bioimpedance spectroscopy, we empower women to detect fluid changes early, track their recovery, and stay in control of their health.

By shifting monitoring from the hospital to the home, we are enabling women to stay active, independent, and reassured — while helping healthcare systems reduce cost and burden. Our mission is to put prevention at the center of women’s health.
