Options for irregular, heavy or no menstrual cycle

[steph1300]

This would be a very useful feature for those with irregular cycles, or those that have extremely heavy bleeding.

Anyone with non-hormonal birth control device(s), peri-menopause, menopause, endometriosis, fibroids, or other reasons for dysmenorrhea would find this useful.

I’m not looking for “predictions”- just needing a more precise method to log a health condition.

Also, knowing when I might be “fertile” is a minor annoyance, as I have a copper IUD, and no plans to reproduce.

Thank you for your consideration.

Yes! We really need the option for irregular or no menstrual cycle. There are numerous reasons not to have regular period, and it's very annoying, that every week the Fitbit app is predicting my period to start - again and again. I'm not post-menopausal, but I'm eating hormonal medication (after breast cancer), and my period is very, very irregular (but still going).

During chemotherapy there was this same problem: I couldn't put my period "on the shelf" in Fitbit app, but the app continued to predict it to start again and again and again.

How is this still not resolved all the years after its first raised? 

Like many of your users I'm in perimenopause and need to track missed periods / irregular cycle and can't

I’m on the pill, and I roll my pills together so I don’t have periods. My cycle is 21 days long. The cycle part of the app is too focussed on the period and not related enough to the whole cycle. It feels like if you don’t or choose not to have periods. The feature doesn’t work for you

Hi @maryonacross, thanks for taking the time to share this suggestion about adding the option to choose 'No menstrual cycle' on the Menstrual Health Tracking. I've moved it into a similar request.

In menstrual cycle it asked me if I got my period today It says confirm or edit It doesn't give me an option as no. At one point this recalculated and I don't want it to because I think I'm entering perimenopause So I'm trying to track the days for my doctor.

5 years of this suggestion and there's still nothing we can do if we're menopausal and skip periods?   Shame Fitbit.  This isn't an uncommon issue.  Where's the assistance?
