Ability to add a note on Menstrual Health Tracking

(Female Health Calendar) I am a NuvaRing user, and would like the ability to add a custom note on a certain day (even better, a note & a reminder) such as "Insert NuvaRing" or "Remove NuvaRing" on certain days, so I can see those notes in conjunction with my period on the calendar. Pink Pad has this ability, and it would be very useful on FitBit, as the Pink Pad app has gone away, and I would like to exclusively use FitBit to track.

I really like the new female health tile but I would like to be able to add more symptoms. I would also like a reminder to take my birth control in case I forget.

Yeah, the “Conditions” should include Joint Pain, Increased Libido, and connect to the Water tile. The “Trends” in the Female Health Tile also really should feature the most reccuring “Conditions” and predict the days for them for future periods!

I could certainly see how this could be very useful!

I'd like to see more options in the menstrual cycle tracker. It lists a few common symptoms but nowhere near enough!! If I'm tracking, I need to customize it to my own body. Having the option to write a comment for the day is another good way for me track everything.

Hi Fitbit! If you could please consider adding the ability to add a daily note or journal entry in the female health tracking feature, it would be appreciated (and also help solve other suggestions posted on this board). If this were implemented, I would be able to switch over from Clue app to fitbit entirely. 

 

For example, if a symptom or random issue I feel that is related to my cycle happens to me on a specific day, but I don't have the ability to log it because it isn't a listed symptom, I could just add it in my journal entry for that day to reflect on later.

 

Or if I had protected sex, but something different or concerning occured, I could log that in my journal entry.

 

Thank you!!!!

I think it would be great if you could add notes to your Health Tracker. Some symptoms might not have to do with female health or they might not be applicable to all but it would be great to add a note to a day saying you suffered from this and that even though it might not be related to Female Health. It is a good way to track all parts of your health.

Agree 100%!!! Please add this feature! Super important to help keep track and could be an option in the same section as 'morning after pill' - thanks!

Hi! I have loved the female health tracker, I find it more useful and intuitive than many other apps. I do have a suggestion for the "log details" section. I would (and I am sure many others would) benefit from a "notes" or "other" section where I could input and track symptoms that are unique to myself and my cycle. I think that many people who have menstrual cycles have symptoms that are unique to them and that don't necessarily line up with the 5 symptoms listed as options in the app. Thank you!

In the Fenale health section, below the symptoms tracker, I would love a notes section. Every period can be different and keeping notes on it is beneficial when tracking periods. Sometimes there is a concern to talk with a doctor about and having the notes is a great reminder.

I think there should also be a place within the app that you could write little notes about how your cycle is going.

I know this is probably weird, but i love the calendar in the female health part.  I would love to be able to add a few things to be tracked on the calendar.  I had bariatric surgery and there are things that i need to track daily and having it all on the fitbit app would be perfect.  Can we make it so we can add 4-5 things to track??

Please give us an option to add notes for every day of our menstrual cycle such as ovulation tests or pregnancy tests or temperature. These are so important to track when trying to conceive!!

Please make a section to add notes to the period tracker. Sometimes I’d like the moods or symptoms to be recorded a little more specifically. The options available just aren’t enough for me.

Looking back it has been suggested previously by other female users to add in notes for IUD and tracking other important information that is currently not supported by the Female Health section and I would also like to see this. I was using another app to track my periods but I think many women would use the Female Health portion more if it was more extensive.

 

Adding in other mood options such as irritability or sadness would help me track those symptoms that trouble me or having the ability to create my own would be even better! With emojis and titles. Otherwise adding a note section would be easy enough and we could add whatever we wanted to that such as temperature or when one forgot to take their birth control.

 

I think this would be super useful, anyone else agree?
