Provide more Menstrual Health trend analysis options

Hi, I've begun playing with the female health tracker and I have been logging flow data and so on, but I can't see any trend information on that data, so why am I logging?

I want to observe how my flow behaves during my period, I want to observe whether there is a pattern related to my period if I log headache information. I would like to have a "acne" graph, with my period highlighted in time, and a flow graph, and a stomach cramps graph and so on...

Without such extra views, it is useless for me to log anything else but period start and end date. 

Please reward my effort of logging more information, by giving me trend views in return.

What I'd like with the female tracker feature is to see my weight graph coordinated with my periods to help me separate out weight shifts due to my cycle from weight shifts related to my nutrient balance.

i think trend graphs would be very useful. I really like the suggestion. Hopefully they can do something more with the app.

This would be helpful to export and share with physician when talking about my Female Health Problems,  I was shocked when i couldn't even see it on my web based dashboard.  Now to find out, there is no way to get the information extracted is baffling to me, who was the PM on this initiative, appears that it might have been someone who doesn't fully understand the reasons why this information is important to share.

Yes trend graphs are essential, also in relation to other data such as performance, weight etc. Otherwise logging in period data is quite useless and not worth much more than using a paper calendar.

I would definitely like to see better display options for the log data! I am currently struggling with cycle related health problems and it would be so useful to show my doctor a display that includes cycle day and symptoms logged without going through the calendar day by day.

I have been really enjoying the female health tracker, and I do check the daily tracker to see where I am in my cycle. I never used to track that before!

 

One thing that I think would be majorly beneficial would be to provide trends on your common symptoms. Like you usually get cramps on the second day of your cycle, or you usually have tender breasts 3 days before your cycle begins. This would also help for planning. I now remember to bring tampons, but it would be nice to be triggered to check my Advil supply, and make sure I pack my GOOD sports bra.

 

Maybe these are just insights like there is in the sleep data, but providing a little more information would be great!

 

Thanks for considering my idea.

Not just the graphs, but use it for calculations too.

 

Why is Fitbit trying to estimate my period starting now when I am currently logging egg white "fluid" (seriously, just call it what it is, cervical mucous), which means I am likely about to ovulate and not likely to be starting my period.

Hi everyone, this was recently released on version 2.85 of the mobile app. You can view your cycle trends to see your average period and cycle lengths, average estimated ovulation day, and graphs of your past cycles and details. You must log at least 2 periods to see trends. See more in our help article here.
