Menopause Tracker
Perimenopause, Menopause and HRT Companion
Log hot flashes, night sweats, mood, sleep, brain fog, cycle changes, HRT doses, and labs in one place. Menopause Tracker is built for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause who want a clean record of every symptom, every dose, and every change between visits.
Supports late-reproductive, perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause, surgical menopause, and the HRT, non-hormonal, and lifestyle approaches used to manage them.
- Daily symptom log for hot flashes, night sweats, mood, sleep, and brain fog
- HRT and non-hormonal medication schedule with adherence and side-effect tracking
- Cycle and bleeding-pattern log for perimenopause and surgical menopause
- Labs for FSH, estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, and lipids
Free to download. Also available on Google Play. Menopause Tracker is a self-tracking tool, not a medical device, and does not diagnose, treat, or prescribe.
Inside the App
Screens for hot-flash and night-sweat entry, mood and sleep trend charts, HRT schedule, cycle log, and lab tracking.
Your Menopause and Perimenopause Care Plan
Menopause Tracker ships with a guided care plan built around the four things women in peri, menopause, and post-menopause tell us matter most: vasomotor symptoms, sleep and mood, HRT or non-hormonal regimen, and the lifestyle and labs that shape long-term outcomes.
Log vasomotor episodes by count, intensity, and time-of-day. Tag triggers — caffeine, alcohol, spicy food, stress, room temperature, the bedroom blanket. Watch the weekly frequency curve respond to HRT, non-hormonal options, or trigger changes within the first few weeks.
Daily sleep duration and quality, mood score, and cognitive-load rating. Most users find the visible link between disrupted sleep and the next day’s mood and brain fog is the single most useful thing the log surfaces in the first month.
Track estradiol (patch, gel, tablet, ring), micronized progesterone, testosterone if prescribed, and vaginal estrogen. Log side effects, adherence, and any non-hormonal options (SSRIs, gabapentin, clonidine, fezolinetant). See whether each adjustment actually moved the symptoms it was meant to.
Bleeding-pattern log for peri and surgical menopause. Capture FSH, estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, TSH, ferritin, and lipid panels alongside symptom trends. Track exercise, weight, and waist measurements so the lifestyle picture is part of the conversation, not a separate spreadsheet.
Why Tracking Matters for Menopause and Perimenopause
Menopause is the single most under-tracked transition in women’s health. Symptoms shift week to week, HRT regimens take weeks to stabilize, and the medical visit is short. A structured log changes every one of those constraints.
Hot flashes and night sweats are not single-number symptoms. Frequency, intensity, duration, and triggers all matter for treatment decisions. Counting episodes for two weeks before and two weeks after an HRT change tells you, your prescriber, and your insurance whether the regimen is actually working — far more reliably than a remembered “a bit better” at the next visit.
Sleep is the symptom most women say degrades quality of life the most, and the one HRT decisions hinge on. Tracking sleep duration, wake-ups, and quality alongside vasomotor symptoms makes the cause-and-effect visible. By week two most users can predict the conditions that produce a wrecked night and the ones that produce a good one.
Mood, anxiety, and brain fog are often dismissed as separate issues when they are tightly coupled to estrogen withdrawal and sleep disruption. Daily scoring next to cycle and HRT data turns invisible decline into a visible trend and reframes the conversation with your prescriber from “I feel awful” to “here is what is actually moving.”
Long-term cardiovascular, bone, and cognitive outcomes in menopause depend on decisions made now — HRT timing, exercise, weight, lipids, bone density. A tracked log of the last 90 to 365 days is the single most useful thing you can hand a primary care clinician, GYN, or menopause specialist when those decisions are being made.
What You Can Expect
Based on how structured self-tracking tends to work across hormonal transitions, consistent use of Menopause Tracker over 30, 60, and 90 days typically surfaces patterns like these.
Clearer Hot-Flash Pattern
Two weeks of episode counts plus triggers usually reveal one or two modifiable drivers — late caffeine, evening alcohol, room temperature, stress windows. Most users see episode frequency drop within the first month as the obvious triggers get adjusted.
Better Sleep Continuity
Pairing sleep tracking with night-sweat and bedroom-environment notes makes the actual problem (heat, awakenings, racing thoughts, partner snoring) visible. Targeted changes typically tighten sleep within four to six weeks.
More Stable Mood
Mood scored daily against sleep, cycle, and HRT changes turns vague mood swings into a pattern that responds to specific levers. Most users find one or two reliable mood-protective habits within the first month.
Faster HRT Optimization
Most HRT regimens need one or two adjustments before settling. A logged symptom curve compresses the trial-and-error window. Your prescriber sees what shifted (or did not) and can adjust on data, not on a remembered story.
More Consistent Lifestyle Levers
Exercise, weight, waist, and lipids all matter more in menopause. A visible weekly trend usually drives more consistent exercise frequency, especially strength training, within the first eight weeks.
Portable Records for Your GYN
Export a clean PDF for your GYN, primary care doctor, menopause specialist, or telehealth prescriber. Instead of recalling the last 90 days from memory, you hand them a structured timeline of symptoms, cycle, HRT doses, side effects, and labs.
Individual results vary. Menopause Tracker supports self-tracking and is not a substitute for a GYN, primary care doctor, menopause specialist, or other licensed healthcare professional. Always follow the care plan set by your clinical team.
Understanding Menopause and Perimenopause
Menopause is a transition, not a single date. Different stages call for different tracking focus, and Menopause Tracker adapts to whichever stage you are in.
Late-reproductive stage. Cycles are still regular but subtle shifts are starting — slightly heavier or shorter bleeds, a few early hot flashes, sleep changes, irritability around the luteal phase. The tracking focus is cycle length, bleeding pattern, sleep, and mood. Catching the start of the transition early gives you and your clinician a longer runway for decisions about HRT timing, contraception, and lifestyle.
Perimenopause. Cycles become irregular, hot flashes and night sweats appear or intensify, sleep fragmentation worsens, and mood shifts can feel out of proportion. Tracking shifts to daily vasomotor counts, sleep quality, mood, brain fog, and any bleeding pattern changes. This is where most HRT and non-hormonal decisions get made; a clean log makes those decisions faster and better.
Menopause (12+ months no period). By definition, twelve consecutive months with no menstrual bleed. Vasomotor symptoms often peak in the year before and the first one to two years after. Sleep, mood, vaginal dryness, libido, and joint pain may all need attention. Menopause Tracker logs them alongside HRT or non-hormonal regimens so the picture stays integrated.
Post-menopause. Years after the last menstrual bleed. Hot flashes can persist for many women for a decade or more. Long-term focus shifts toward cardiovascular health, bone density, weight and waist, lipids, cognition, and ongoing HRT or non-hormonal management. Menopause Tracker logs these without making them feel like a second app.
Surgical or early menopause. Menopause induced by oophorectomy, chemotherapy, radiation, or premature ovarian insufficiency. Symptoms tend to be more abrupt and more intense. Tracking benefits are highest here — HRT decisions are time-sensitive, and a logged symptom and lab record is the single most useful piece of information your prescriber can have.

Cycle and bleeding pattern (if still cycling)
HRT doses (estradiol, progesterone, testosterone)
Non-hormonal meds (SSRI, gabapentin, fezolinetant)
Weight, waist, and body composition
FSH, estradiol, progesterone, testosterone
Thyroid (TSH, free T4), ferritin, vitamin D
Blood pressure and lipid panel
Strength and cardio sessions per week
Symptoms (joint pain, dryness, libido changes)
Tracking Tips for People Living with Menopause
Practical advice from women navigating menopause and perimenopause. None of this is medical advice; it is structural advice for your log.
Count Hot Flashes for Two Weeks Before HRT
If you are considering HRT, a clean two-week baseline of episode counts and intensity is the most useful thing you can bring to that visit. After starting, log another four to six weeks to see whether and how the regimen is working.
Tag Triggers, Not Just Episodes
Caffeine, alcohol, spicy food, stress, room temperature, blanket weight. Tag each hot flash with whatever is relevant in the moment. Within two weeks most users can point to one or two reliable triggers worth changing first.
Treat Sleep as the Highest-Value Lever
Sleep fragmentation drives next-day mood, brain fog, and snack patterns more than almost anything else. Log bedtime, wake time, and wake-ups separately so the actual sleep problem (latency, fragmentation, early waking) becomes obvious.
Track HRT Side Effects, Not Just Doses
Breast tenderness, breakthrough bleeding, mood changes, headaches. Side effects often resolve in the first few weeks; without a log they can drive premature stops. With one, your prescriber can decide whether to wait, switch, or adjust.
Log Strength Sessions Separately from Cardio
Strength training is the single most important exercise modality across menopause for bone, muscle, and metabolism. Log sessions per week as a standalone metric so the trend is visible, not buried inside generic activity.
Note Cycle Changes the Day They Happen
In perimenopause, cycle gaps, spotting, heavy bleeds, and skipped months are clinically meaningful. A two-line entry the day each event happens gives you a real picture by the next GYN visit, not a guess.
Photograph Lab Reports
After every blood draw, snap the report and attach it. FSH, estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, TSH, ferritin, vitamin D, and the lipid panel plot on your trend, and the original PDF stays available for any specialist.
Bring the Export to Every Visit
A 90-day PDF beats a memory test. Hand it to your GYN, menopause specialist, or telehealth prescriber so the visit stops being “how have you been” and starts being “here is what is moving.”
How It Works
Four steps from install to a record your GYN or menopause specialist can actually use.
Set Your Menopause Stage
Tell Menopause Tracker where you are: still cycling, perimenopause, menopause (12+ months no period), post-menopause, or surgical menopause. The default symptom set and content adapt; you can change stage any time as the picture changes.
Log Daily Basics
Hot flash and night-sweat counts, sleep duration and quality, mood and brain fog scores, and any HRT or non-hormonal doses taken. Each entry takes under 15 seconds. Menopause Tracker timestamps everything and updates your dashboard live.
Add Cycle, Labs and Lifestyle
Log cycle changes and bleeding patterns the day they happen. After every blood draw, type the values (FSH, estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, TSH, ferritin, lipids) and attach the report. Log strength and cardio sessions per week.
Review and Share
Before every GYN, primary care, or menopause-specialist visit, open the summary view: vasomotor frequency, sleep, mood, HRT adherence and side effects, cycle, labs, and lifestyle. Export a clean PDF for your prescriber or keep it private.
