![]() ![]() You’ll no longer feel surprised or sabotaged by your cycle-Clue keeps you, quite literally, clued in on the whys and hows of every hormonal shift. ![]() You can track as little or as much as you like with this app-from the obvious (period start date, length, flow) to the useful (premenstrual symptoms like cramps and cravings), to the enlightening (energy levels, mood, mental state). The rest of science needs a serious feminist awakening (most research still doesn’t include female subjects and much health advice comes from research primarily focused on the male body).īut Clue has female-kind covered. This app firmly places the menstrual cycle in the health sphere, teaming up with prestigious universities around the world to use collectively sourced data to further women’s health research. Not getting your period? Your cycles lengthening or shortening? Information you can track with your app can provide the necessary insight for early diagnosis of a number of hormonal imbalance-based health issues or give you a hint that you need to change your diet or self-care practices. Plus, there are health benefits to being menstrual cycle aware: in 2016, ACOG (the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists) declared the menstrual cycle “the fifth vital sign of health.” Changes in your menstrual cycle are considered an indicator of overall health. Tracking your menstrual cycle can even make your period better! Now we have the tools to not just track, but also gain insight on how and why our cycles change, providing information that can enrich your whole period experience. In fact, some researchers suggest menstrual cycle tracking brought about the concept of time itself. Women have tracked their menstrual cycles for centuries. As we become more comfortable with discussing periods publicly, it makes sense that we would want to get to know our menstrual cycles a little, or a lot, better. Whether you want a reminder for when your period will arrive, to track your premenstrual symptoms, plan or avoid pregnancy, or gather the kind of data your naturopath or health coach will geek out over-there’s an app out there for you. Every woman’s menstrual cycle is different, so it’s a good thing there’s a wide range of choices when it comes to period tracking apps. ![]()
