You know something is changing. Your doctor visits are 15 minutes. AsterLuna helps you walk in with proof. AsterLuna is a private perimenopause symptom tracker built around one idea: your experience is real, and it deserves to be taken seriously. Log your day in under 30 seconds, watch your patterns emerge, and generate a clear PDF report to bring to your appointment. It goes far deeper than a cycle app: built only for this transition. TRACK WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING • 34 built-in symptoms, from hot flashes and night sweats to brain fog, joint pain, mood, cravings, and the ones nobody warned you about • Add your own custom symptoms • One-tap logging for countable symptoms like hot flashes, with automatic timestamps • Cycle tracking built for perimenopause, where irregularity is the signal, not a bug • A private journal: notes for your next appointment, as personal or as brief as you want SEE YOUR PATTERNS • Trends for every symptom across 30, 90, or 365 days • Cycle overlay to see how symptoms move with your cycle • A dedicated Mood & Mind view, because your mental health matters most of all BRING YOUR DOCTOR PROOF • Generate a clean, printable PDF summary of your symptoms, cycle, and severity over time • You choose exactly what goes in it, including which journal entries, if any • Your first report is free PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account. No sign-up. No tracking. • Your health data lives on your device and in your own private iCloud. We have no server that collects it. We cannot see it, and we cannot sell it. • Export your data anytime as a CSV, free, forever. It is yours. FEEL LESS ALONE • The Circle: send and receive anonymous notes of encouragement from other women in this transition. No profiles, no comments, no free text. Just "you're not alone," and it is always optional. • Gentle companion notes with real prevalence facts, because half the battle is learning that what you are feeling is common. A CALM PLACE TO LAND • A soft, botanical design with original artwork, built to be readable on the hardest days • A discreet home screen widget that shows your day's log count, and nothing else • Daily reminders that never name a symptom in a notification FREE AND PAID Logging, journaling, cycle tracking, and CSV export are free forever. Your first doctor report is free too. Trends and unlimited reports unlock with AsterLuna Pro: a one-time lifetime purchase if you want to keep your history forever, or a monthly subscription with a 7-day free trial if you are just passing through this season. AsterLuna is a personal tracking tool. It does not diagnose or treat any condition and is not a substitute for professional medical care. Always talk with a qualified provider about your health.

You know your body changed. Now see if it's changing back. Log how you feel in seconds. When your dose changes, Dial shows the before and after - proof you can take to your doctor. THE DIAL One glance tells you where you are today, and whether things have eased since your last change. An honest instrument, not a mood ring. BEFORE & AFTER, FOR EVERY CHANGE Adjust your dose, add a medication, switch products - Dial marks it on your timeline and compares the weeks before and after. Each regimen gets a verdict you can stand behind. BUILT FOR REAL BODIES Track the symptoms that matter to you, your cycle as it changes, blood results, and the life events (illness, stress, surgery) that explain the wobbles your dose didn't cause. BRING THE RECEIPTS Export a clean PDF report - your trend, every change, and how each one landed - designed to be handed across a doctor's desk. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything stays on your phone. No account. No cloud. No tracking. Dial never gives medical or dosing advice. It shows you your own data, clearly - decisions stay between you and your clinician. 7 days free, then £3.99/month or £24.99/year.
