For simplicity, let's assume initially that the support of $\mu$ is the whole real line, so that $F$ is a homeomorphism $ \mathbb{R} \to (0,1) $. Let's denote $b:=F(0)=\mu(-\infty,0]=1-\mu[0,+\infty)\in(0,1)$. The relevant function is the strictly convex function $\Phi :(0,1)\to\mathbb{R}$ defined as $$\Phi(t):=\int_{b}^t F^{-1}(s)\, ds $$ which is the Legendre transformation of $\int_0^x F(t)dt$. Incidentally $\Phi(0)=-\int_{-\infty}^0 F(t)dt$, $\Phi(1)=\int_0^{+\infty} (1 -F(t))dt$ and $\|\Phi\|_\infty=\max\{\Phi(0),\Phi(1)\}$ may be finite or not. Let's denote $\Psi_{+}:=(\Phi_{|[b,1)})^{-1}:[0,\Phi(1))\to[b,1)$ and $\Psi_-:=(\Phi_{|(0,b]})^{-1}:[0,\Phi(0))\to(0,b]$ (they can be viewed as $C^1$ function with compact support on $[0,+\infty)$ by zero-extension). Note that $\Psi(t):=1-\Psi_+(t)+\Psi_-(t)=\big|\{\Psi\ge t\}\big|$ is the inverse function of the monotone decreasing rearrangement of $\Psi$, and is supported on $[0,\|\Phi\|_{\infty}]$. Consider the solution $u:[0,+\infty)\to \mathbb{R}$ of the first order autonomous ODE $$u'(t) = \frac{1}{2} \Psi (u ),\quad t\ge0$$ with $u(0)=0$, given explicitly by $$u^{-1}(x)=2\int_0^x\frac{dy}{ \Psi (y) }$$ Then it is easy to check that $\phi_{\pm}:=F^{-1}\circ\Psi_\pm\circ u $ solve the initial problem written as $$ 2\phi_+ F'(\phi_+)\phi_+'=2\phi_- F'(\phi_-)\phi_-'=1-F(\phi_+)+F(\phi_-)$$ that we can write equivalently, because $\phi_\pm=F^{-1}\circ F\circ \phi_\pm=\Phi'\circ F\circ \phi_\pm$, in the form $$ 2(\Phi\circ F\circ \phi_+)'=2(\Phi\circ F\circ \phi_-)'=1-\Psi_+\circ\Phi\circ F\circ \phi_+ +\Psi_-\circ\Phi\circ F\circ \phi_- .$$ Conversely, if $\phi_\pm$ solve the initial system, the latter equation shows that $\Phi\circ F\circ \phi_+=\Phi\circ F\circ \phi_-$ because they coincide at $0$ and have the same derivative, and in fact solve the above equation for $u$. $$*$$ **Rmk.** The assumption on the support of $\mu$ is not crucial; if it is not the whole real line, $F$ is constant on some open set, and $F^{-1}$ has jumps and it is only defined as a left inverse of $F$; the integral for $\Phi$ is however well defined.
