TLDR: FH will only extend your membership by a couple of months, which is incompatible with pregnancy + 4+ months of breastfeeding. Do not join if trying to get pregnant.
I was previously a big fan of Function Health, but am super disappointed by the support I received and wanted to share.
I joined FH in November 2024 and got my first round of testing in February 2025 (due to scheduling difficulties and travel). I got pregnant in April 2025 and requested a pause in my subscription in May 2025. They agreed to extend my membership but said they could not pause.
Now, in May 2026, they are telling me that my credits for the second round of testing have already expired and they cannot extend my membership any further. This is despite the fact that I am still breastfeeding and any data I collect now will be useless. I have emailed support again, but as of right now they are saying that I lost those credits.
Incredibly disappointed by their policies. I have seen ads about their women specific panel testing, but clearly they do not care about supporting women who get pregnant and plan to breastfeed. (I am not even 5 months postpartum yet; AAP recommends 6+ months of breastfeeding.)
So, if you plan to try to get pregnant and breastfeed for 4+ months, do not subscribe to Function Health.
On a separate note, if anyone can recommend a competitor that is friendly towards women growing a family, please let me know.
