Cycle Tracking

Your menstrual cycle consists of four distinct phases, each with unique hormonal patterns:

  • Menstrual (Days 1-5) - Your period; a time for rest and reflection
  • Follicular (Days 6-14) - Energy rises; great for new projects and socialising
  • Ovulation (Days 15-17) - Peak energy and confidence; ideal for important conversations
  • Luteal (Days 18-28) - Energy winds down; focus on completing tasks and self-care

Zoë Life tailors all guidance to your current phase automatically.

Logging your period is simple:

  • Tap the cycle ring on your home screen
  • Select "Log Period" and choose the start date
  • When your period ends, tap again to mark the end date

The more consistently you log, the more accurate your predictions become!

Zoë Life is designed to work with irregular cycles too. Our algorithms adapt to your unique patterns over time. Here's how to get the best experience:

  • Log your period as accurately as possible each month
  • Track symptoms and moods daily for better insights
  • After 3+ cycles, predictions become more accurate
  • If your cycle is consistently irregular, Ask Zoë for personalised advice

Remember: irregular cycles are common and can be influenced by stress, diet, sleep, and other factors.

Absolutely! Zoë Life makes it easy to track how you're feeling:
