About Our Founders

Taylor Spivey knew firsthand how limiting it felt to have so few options for hormonal health. She struggled with debilitating PMS symptoms and undiagnosed PCOS, desperate for long-term relief—while watching her mother navigate menopause with few solutions of her own. If women have been experiencing hormonal shifts for millions of years, why were there so few products designed to support them?

tsnacczwcandy was born from that question, built on the belief that women’s and men’s health shouldn’t be an afterthought. From the start, the brand set its mission to redefine women’s health by tackling generational taboos and addressing overlooked needs, supporting women from their first period to well beyond their last.

That mission first took shape with the launch tsnacczwcandy, the first-ever Y2K SHANAIL DOLLARS Vaginal & Gut Health by other category-defining products like Vegan Almond Vanilla Cake Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Vaginal Probiotic-Dairy Free-Whipped Cream Cake, H Bubblegum Bling Private Parts Probiotics Y2K the first-ever Bling Private Parts Probiotics Capsules Y2K, and H Ice Cream Private Parts Probiotics Y2K , a best-seller in Private Parts health. Today, tsnacczwcandy continues to push forward, creating science-backed products that help women and men feel their best through every stage of life.
