@DelancrayCeline l'audace d'envoyer des conseils non sollicités avec tes propres données qu'ils ont revendues. Give Zero ne partage pas les tiennes. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Je reçois à l instant un mail de l assurance maladie intitulé bien vivre sa menaupose. 1) comment savent ils que je suis menauposee ? 2 ) je le vis très bien, je peux me passer de leurs conseils.

@christen_rexing 3-4am wake ups are classic low progesterone. it drops, cortisol spikes early, and you're up. not insomnia. hormones. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Oh, yay! 3:55am seems to be my body’s new wake up time… 🫠

@Opiumbrella all of these are connected, and documenting them together is what makes them undismissable. Give Zero tracks symptoms by phase so the pattern is impossible to ignore. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

And even this is the MOST talked about and recognizable pm/menopause symptom. Even OBGYNs know next to nothing about so many of the others, and dismiss it all as unrelated. Insanely Itchy ears Insomnia Anxiety Let’s not forget the RAGE digestive issues Skin issues Peeing 500 times a day and on and on.

@JustAMomNamedMM stumbling in blind is the whole problem. most women don't know what peri looks like until they're already in it. Give Zero has an assessment that tells you where you actually are. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

I really wish that someone had talked about perimenopause when I was younger. Like I never heard any woman ever talk about it. Not ever. That pisses me off. They should have been warning us girls how bad it was going to be. Instead, we stumble into it blindly

@Nella28184257 @SophieAhmed2 @bbceastenders exactly, which is why symptom tracking over time matters more than a single blood test. patterns tell you what a snapshot can't. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

@SophieAhmed2 @bbceastenders You know blood tests are particularly inconclusive with peri/menopause right? The hormone levels are unpredictable which is kind of the whole issue here.

Honey is screaming for help but her shouts are being ignored. #EastEnders

@carriemae68 @DrPlantel that gap is exactly why tracking your own data matters, when the system won't, you document it. Give Zero built for that. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

@DrPlantel Can we discuss the lack of evidenced based care for peri/menopause ?

Things that are actually harming women’s health (and no, it’s not freaking seed oils): -Chronic sleep deprivation disguised as “just part of motherhood” -The mental load of running a household while working full-time -Delayed diagnoses because symptoms are dismissed as “anxiety” or “stress” -Lack of paid maternity leave and real postpartum support -Being told to “just lose weight” instead of getting evidence-based care -Skipping meals, movement, and medical appointments because everyone else comes first -Medical gaslighting, especially when it comes to pain, fatigue, and hormonal symptoms -Structural barriers to care: time, cost, childcare, access -Workplace systems that punish pregnancy and caregiving -The expectation that women should function at 100%…all the time…no matter what But sure, tell me more about seed oils. 🙄

@DrPlantel and the data gap makes it worse, most women have no baseline to bring to appointments, so symptoms stay invisible until they're severe.

@drjenwolkin and tracking it by cycle phase makes the pattern visible, estrogen peaks in follicular often mask symptoms, luteal drop exposes them. Give Zero maps this. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Puberty, pregnancy, post-partum, and peri/menopause don’t cause ADHD, they EXPOSE it. The truth is, it’s been there all along, masked by good grades, or being “the quiet good girl,” or with diagnoses of depression and anxiety. XO, Dr. Jen

@SarahVaci in your late 40s, progesterone drop disrupts deep sleep architecture. it's not habits, it's hormones... but like... really! tracking it by cycle phase shows the pattern. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Is it possible to have a properly good sleep in your late 40s and wake up feeling refreshed and well rested? To have that ‘close your eyes and they ping open a moment later and you’ve had a whole night’s sleep’ experience just like when you’re a kid? Does anyone have that? What’s your secret? I’m tired every damn morning!

@LenValyrian the mood swings + irritability + sleep deprivation combo is genuinely brutal. and most women don't realize it's hormonal, not just "life." apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Perimenopause is TERRIBLE I know for a fact that it causes a woman to initiate DIVORCE

@girlsreallyrule the list is endless because estrogen receptors are literally everywhere in your body. jaw included, apparently. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

So I was googling all of the symptoms of peri-menopause and let me just save you some time...EVERY bad symptom is listed except lock jaw. Wait. I just found a list with lock jaw.

@nickimoraa this + a tool that tracks where you actually are in the transition = Give Zero. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Dear Millennial Little Sisters, As you approach perimenopause, please reach out to us because our moms didn’t tell us shit either but we’ve been yelling at doctors for 15 years and found out some stuff. xoxo - Gen X

@Pewpewkachuu @nickimoraa "too young" with regular periods is exactly perimenopause. cycles can stay normal for years while symptoms start. Give Zero has an assessment that tells you where you actually are. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

@nickimoraa My doctor keeps saying I'm still too young at 45. I'm just sitting here waiting for it to actually happen (I'm still getting normal periods, so I guess not yet).

@dootdootootdoot yes, and it's worse at specific times of the month. estrogen drop = less acetylcholine = slower word retrieval. it's a pattern, not you losing your mind. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Question for my menopausal pals: do you find it difficult to recall names of people or things? Not ones you have forgotten, but names you know perfectly well but cannot easily bring to mind on the spot?

@fcknsyd this is really common in the luteal phase, progesterone drop triggers a cortisol spike right as you fall asleep. your body reads it as a stress event even when you feel calm. tracking it against your cycle usually shows it's not random. Give Zero does exactly that.

Has anyone else dealt with this? My body goes into stress mode as soon as I fall asleep. Even if I'm in rest mode before falling asleep. What could be the cause of this? What has helped you?

@sirenmoonbee the frustrating part: most apps flag it as "out of balance" with no hormonal context. Give Zero tracks HRV by cycle phase so you can see if it's a pattern, not just a bad day. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Anyone else in menopause had such low hrv scores and high heartrate when you've just woke up and not moved yet? #visibleapp #menopause #chronicillness #neisvoid

@AllisonFlo97981 and yet most tracking apps still treat HRV as a generic number with no cycle context. follicular vs luteal HRV baselines can differ by 15-20ms in the same person. completely normal. completely ignored.

breaks down how HRV, progesterone, and estrogen impact your stress and heart health—and how the onset of menopause shifts it all. Tune in for the inside scoop on your body's natural rhythm!

@mellisaamimi because their success metric is pregnancies, not you actually understanding your cycle. Give Zero doesn't ask that. apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

Idk what Flo is doing I just want to track my period I don’t want to know about non penetrative sex ideas

@Good_and_Glory because most apps only track when it comes, not what happens in between. we built something for that if you want to look 👀 apps.apple.com/us/app/give-ze…

The one piece of advice I wish someone would have told me long ago is that when you are in the late luteal phase of your cycle, the best thing to do is keep your mouth shut. It’s not the time for discussions or decisions. Next week you will be thinking more clearly.

This is what we're building.
