Medication reminder based on Factors/Symptoms

I have Pre Menstrual Dysphoric Disorder and take an SSRI after ovulation and before menstruation to help with pre menstrual symptoms. Because my cycle is extremely irregular, a reminder to take the SSRI as soon as I log ovulation pain would help keep my hormonal depression at bay.

I’m sure this could be useful for anyone who needs reminders to take certain medication following specific symptoms or triggering factors.

Thanks!

    Hey! Thank you for sharing this suggestion. This is a very interesting use case, and I think setting up automatic reminders like this could have lots of uses and benefits.

    Hi there, was this ever added? It would be great for migraines to be reminder to take meds once logging first symptoms like aura.

    I wanted to suggest something similar: Medication reminders that are dependent on days of your menstrual cycle. For example, in my specific case, I would use it for a hormone cream I’m supposed to apply daily for a two week period starting on the 12th day of my cycle - though that’s a bit of a specific case.

    I imagine a much more common use for a feature like that would be birth control pills, which are often taken in a 28-day regimen starting the first day of your cycle. Considering how often things like birth control pills are prescribed to treat gynecological conditions, I think it’d be a useful feature for a lot of people.
