If you're someone who is menstruating, pinpointing changes that happen alongside hormonal fluctuations can help you find management strategies to prevent future flare-ups linked to your cycle. Here's how to track your menstrual cycle alongside your other symptoms and observations:
Add the "Menstruation" observation in your Journal: If you add it as a Yes/No observation, you can simply track the days you’re having menstrual bleeding. If you want to track how heavy your bleeding is, you can use a Severity Scale (0-5).
Track your symptoms as usual, including the days of your period
3. Graph your observations to see your patterns
Tracking your menstrual cycle as a flare trigger:
If your menstrual cycle causes flare-ups, you can also use the "Menstrual cycle/period" tag in your Flare Form. If you do not see this option, you can add it by clicking "+Add/Edit" and typing "Menstrual cycle/period" and tapping "Create 'Menstrual cycle/period'". This way you can see how often menstruation triggers a flare-up in your Insights.
