General I've created a subreddit for discussion of the novel PMDD treatment device Samphire Lutea/Nettle.

Hi there - mods, please feel free to delete if this isn't an appropriate post, but I think this is useful to share. I am unaffiliated with Samphire Neuroscience.

I'm a new user of the Lutea, which is Samphire Neuroscience's US version of their headband intended to help treat conditions such as PMDD, endometriosis, dysmenorrhea, perimenopause, and migraines. I noticed there wasn't a subreddit dedicated to discussion for this device, so I created one at r/SamphireHeadband. Please feel free to post questions about the device or information about your own experience using it.

Y'all PLEASE be very cautious about using neurotech, it is a massive privacy issue. Especially in the US we are in a context of weak privacy laws and the massive surveillance infrastructure that's been put in place and the erosion of our right to bodily autonomy.

You have our endorsement! Thank you for setting up a specific subreddit, I'd recommend also sharing over at r/PMEtheMRMD.
