Although most fitness-tech products work are unisex, there are a few products that are for women only.

The Ombra is a sports bra that has a wireless heart monitor built in. The design is aimed at providing all the support of a good sports bra, while at the same time providing information metrics about how your body is doing. It features wide straps, padded removable cups, and reduces stress on the back through the use of strechable, high performance materials. Your data is offloaded to a small attached box, so you don't need to carry your phone with you. In addition to heart rate, the company claims it will be able to track calories burnt during your workouts. The data gets synced to your phone when you're ready. It will begin shipping this spring. By the way, the company makes a monitor for men called the OMShirt, that works with the same sort of sensor box.

Another category of fitness devices, just for women, are connected Kegel exercise sensors. One of the most popular is the Elvie Pelvic Floor Exerciser ($199). The device comes in its own charger. Typically, these gadgets have a variety of exercise modes to give you feedback on your Kegels. In the case of the Elvie, you go through a five minute routine that tracks your strength and speed, gamifying the process of strengthening the pelvic floor.
