MyHealthInsights.com is community to advance the concept of evidence-based medicine and informed medical decision making. The healthcare industry knows precious little which treatments are effective and which are not. Modern medicine, for all its immense promise, is still a deadly game of trial-and-error, with less than 25% of treatments currently being prescribed based on proven efficacy.
Through the contributions of ordinary people like you sharing their experiences, we hope to reduce this guess-work and improve healthcare significantly.

Our aim is to give you the best possible information to be informed and self-empowered while discussing with your doctor or healthcare provider.
You can contribute your healthcare experiences even without registering using the 'Contribute' section. Your contribution is aggregated using our proprietary Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology (developed at MIT), and made available to be queried using the 'Research Insights' feature.
Your experience in sharing how useful a certain therapy or medication has been for a certain condition is used to train the Artificial Intelligence (AI) system.
The Insights section is a research tool, that shows which therapies have been viewed as most effective for a certain condition by the community. The insights are generated using a sophisticated pattern recognition algorithm that suggests the best treatment options, to discuss with your doctor or healthcare provider. These insights can be made more relevant by setting your gender, ethnicity, geographic location etc.
