Period Calendar vs. Menstrual Calendar. Which should I use?
|
|
You can track your period using either our Period Calendar or
Menstrual Cycle Calendar.
With the period calendar,
you can track your period with just
1 click! Plus, you can opt to view 1, 3, 6, or 12 months at a time, so
it's an easy way to view past menstrual cycles. But it doesn't
enable you to enter detail such as flow level or notes. It's often
used by new members to quickly add past menstrual periods.
The menstrual
calendar can be used to track
more detail about each period day, including daily flow level and notes.
Once you are on the period event edit screen, you can stay in-screen to
easily track multiple days of your period. To do so, use the mini navigational
calculator on the upper right of the screen to change the date after you save
your data for the current date you are tracking.
Switching Between Calendars
You can easily switch back and forth between each calendar! When you're
at the period calendar, click on the month/year link and you'll go
direct to the menstrual calendar. On the mensrual calendar, click the
Period Calendar link (lower, right of calendar) to go to the Period
Calendar for the current month/year you are viewing.
Useful Tips
-
On both calendars, there's no limit to the number of period days
you can track, and that can vary each month. So, for instance, if your
menstruation lasts 4 days one month, 6 the next, and 5 the next, simply
record 4 days for the first menstrual period, 6 days for the next, etc.
- The period data you track on the period calendar carries over to the
menstrual calendar, and vice-versa. For example, if you track your periods initially
on the period calendar, and then access the menstrual calendar, your period
data will be shown there and can be edited from there as well.
