Menopause (Pre, during and post) tracking

Good Day.  I am impressed by the implementation of "Period Cycles" etc under "Female Health" and all of the (well thought out) subsequent suggestions by the community on this subject.  However,  aside from "ELLYMAY46" who posed a question on "Hot Flushes",  Fitbit has completely neglected the consideration of the ladies undergoing Menopause (in any one of the three stages).  Now ladies, please bear in mind that Menopause may begin as early as in one's 30's. There are many cycles to a female's body in her life time, not just "the dreaded period part". Please consider adding Menopause as part of "Female Health.   We are not all grey headed great grandmothers who are bed ridden with one foot at deaths' door. Not only the beautiful, young, with their lithe firm bodies wear Fitbit. Menopause can strike at any time and it affects every lady differently.  It's duration also differs from one to another. You only understand it's annoying symptoms if you have / had them.  Thank you.

Given that no one in the US wants to be tracking menstruation, but there is a large and aging female user base for Fitbit that needs menopause-related health information, develop a NON-menstruation analytics/logging feature set for perimenopause and menopause related symptoms like sleep disturbance, urination issues, hair loss, irritability.

Why can't I make menstrual health tracking set to menopause, no periods? Why have you decided to not track hot flashes (which severely affects my sleep and well being?

  • I find most menstrual apps help with period tracking to help get pregnant or prevent pregnancy. That would have been great when I was younger. Now that I’m in my early 50’d and have had my tubes tied to 22 years I would like an app the helps with premenopausal periods and symptoms. I’ve yet to find one that helps with premenopausal symptoms or suggestions. I don’t need an app to telll me if I have sex 15 days after my period that I could get pregnant because, no I can’t! Anyone else frustrated with that?

Add features for tracking menopausal symptoms. This would help women track their journey from pre- to peri- to post-menopausal stages. It's like reverse tracker for menstrual health.
