MANstrual Plus: One annual subscription covers you and your current paired partner. The US price is $19.99 per year, with localized prices shown in the app. Eligible Apple Accounts receive a one-month introductory free trial when they subscribe. The subscription automatically renews at the annual price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before renewal. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings.

Her partner sees derived forecasts, never raw health records. Apple Health is optional and read-only, and Junction processes the selected data to build the forecast. Health data is never used for advertising or sold. MANstrual is a wellness product. Forecasts are estimates based on entered dates and optional wearable trends. It does not diagnose conditions, predict fertility, confirm pregnancy or provide contraception.
