Private by default • Free forever

A calm, private space for the days that feel impossible.

Luteal helps you understand what is happening, feel understood, and find support through cycle-related shifts that can be hard to recognise from the inside — especially when timing is irregular, emotions feel louder than usual, or words are hard to find.

Your space stays yours.

Everything is designed to feel safe, calm and under your control: your data is encrypted, adding a partner is always optional, and any guidance starts with your experience first. Partner thoughts only join that picture when you explicitly invite them in.

What Luteal does

It is built to help you understand yourself more clearly, feel understood by the people around you, and find steadier next steps when the month suddenly stops feeling manageable.

Track

Notice mood, body changes, relationship shifts and day-to-day functioning in seconds, or leave a fuller diary entry when you have more to say.

Spot

See recurring windows, irregular-cycle patterns and familiar spirals more clearly, even when it is hard to recognise them from the inside.

Share

Tell your partner what you need without having to explain everything perfectly in the moment, and without giving up control of your private space.

Support

Pause the urge to act permanently on a temporary state, return to what helps, and find guidance that feels practical, calm and non-judgemental.

Made to support, not judge.

Luteal is not here to tell you your feelings are not real. It is here to help with context, timing and next steps — to separate what feels true, what may be louder than usual, and whether something needs action now, later, or with support.

Notice your state

See the day more clearly, even when everything feels loud, rushed or hard to name.

Pause permanent decisions

Hold space for intense feelings without forcing an immediate, irreversible answer.

Ask for support in one tap

Share a need, not a whole explanation, when language collapses and reassurance is still needed.

Keep a record you can trust

Build a clearer picture over time so you can look back, make sense of patterns, and feel taken seriously later.

Features

Everything below is designed to feel lighter on the hardest days: large actions, less typing, no guilt, and a calmer path from “what is happening?” to “what do I need next?”

Relationship-first. Irregular-cycle-aware. Built for the moments when it is hardest to recognise an episode from the inside.

01

Private by default, calm from the first tap

Luteal feels like a safe space before it feels like a tracker. It starts with your data, your boundaries and your control.

  • Encrypted personal space for moods, notes and reflections
  • Partner mode is always optional and fully permission-based
  • Guidance never uses partner input unless you explicitly allow it

02

A home screen that orients you quickly

The Today view helps you get your bearings quickly: what may be happening, what might help right now, and what can wait until later.

  • State, likely pattern window and confidence level in one place
  • Giant actions for check-in, support and calmer next steps
  • Helpful reminders like “no big decisions tonight” and “what helped last time”

03

A diary that works in one tap or a full entry

The journal works in layers: light enough for brain fog, detailed enough to become a record you can actually trust later.

  • Face or mood score plus partner, work and life tracking as separate domains
  • Quick tags for feelings, conflict, isolation, reassurance, body symptoms and needs
  • Optional notes, voice reflections, good moments, bad moments and memory attachments

“I don’t know if I’m in it”

When it is hard to tell whether this is a familiar difficult window, Luteal compares today to what has happened before and helps you find the gentlest next step.

  • Shows whether today resembles previous hard windows instead of leaving you to piece it together from memory
  • Offers calmer next steps like a support card, a lighter plan or saving thoughts for later review
  • Helps create breathing room before making relationship or life decisions

05

Irregular-cycle awareness without false certainty

Luteal notices pattern windows without pretending every cycle is predictable. It follows what your body and your record are actually showing, even when timing is mixed or unclear.

  • Learns from bleeding, spotting, symptom bursts, sleep shifts and relief after bleeding starts
  • Supports optional signals like wearables, LH tests or temperature tracking without depending on them
  • Shows phase likelihood and confidence instead of a rigid countdown, and helps reveal whether symptoms cluster in a window or stay elevated more broadly

06

Partner mode that protects the relationship

Partner mode helps you and your partner understand what is happening and move through it together, while keeping your experience, privacy and choices at the centre.

  • Shared plans made on better days: what helps, what hurts and what to do when a hard day lands
  • One-tap support cards for reassurance, space, practical help or “not tonight” boundaries
  • Partner guidance and granular sharing controls for state, needs or selected entries — with revoke-anytime permissions

07

Decision Pause for the nights that feel permanent

When everything suddenly feels relationship-ending, job-ending or life-upending, Luteal helps slow the moment down. It helps you and your partner put words around what is happening, hold onto perspective, and come back to big decisions with more clarity.

  • Turns overwhelming moments into clearer next steps instead of rushed choices
  • Helps you save serious thoughts for review later and communicate that pause clearly
  • Puts safety first whenever fear, coercion, threats or harm are involved

A Light Bank and support library for harder days

On harder days, Luteal brings back what has genuinely helped before, so support feels familiar, practical and close at hand.

  • Voice notes, reminders, photos and messages saved during better phases
  • Right now, tonight, this cycle and medical support paths depending on what the moment needs
  • Evidence-aware guidance plus routes to vetted education and moderated external support

09

Reports that help you feel taken seriously

Over time, the record becomes more than a journal. It becomes something you can trust, reflect on, and bring into conversations with a GP, therapist or specialist.

  • Multi-cycle charts, symptom heatmaps and summaries across partner, work and life impact
  • Clearer views of what helped, what worsened things and where symptoms cluster
  • Structured tracking under the hood so the data is useful later, not just pretty in the moment

Safety built in from the start

Safety is built into everyday use. Luteal helps you make a plan on steadier days and keeps things simple when you need help now.

  • Private safety plans, warning signs, trusted contacts and a clear emergency path
  • A simpler crisis view for the days when even small decisions feel too heavy
  • Support routes that do not depend on a partner being available or involved

FAQ

Clear answers, plain language, and no pressure.

Is Luteal only for PMDD?

No. It is built with PMDD in mind, but it is also for people trying to understand other cycle-related shifts, irregular patterns and the impact these changes can have on mood, work and relationships.

What if I cannot tell when I am in a hard window?

That is one of the main reasons Luteal exists. The app is designed to help you notice familiar patterns, compare today with previous windows and reduce the pressure to make sense of everything from memory alone.

Will the app ever tell me my feelings are not real?

No. Luteal is designed to support without gaslighting. It can help with timing, urgency and next steps, and it does not dismiss what you are feeling.

Do I have to add my partner?

No. Partner mode is entirely optional. You can use Luteal privately, share only certain things, or never invite a partner at all.

Will partner input automatically change guidance or advice?

No. Guidance begins with your own data and your own experience. Partner thoughts stay separate unless you explicitly choose to include them in a specific piece of support.

What if my cycles are irregular?

Luteal is designed for that reality. Instead of pretending timing is exact, it aims to show pattern likelihood and confidence so you can spot meaningful trends without false certainty.

Does Luteal replace medical care or diagnose anything?

No. The app is there to help you notice patterns, document what is happening and make conversations with clinicians easier. It is not a replacement for diagnosis, treatment or emergency help.

What happens if I am in crisis or feel unsafe?

Luteal quickly surfaces safety tools, trusted contacts and urgent-help routes. It can support a plan, but it does not replace emergency services or immediate clinical help.

Is it really free forever?

Yes. Luteal is intended to stay free, with no ads, no subscriptions and no selling of sensitive personal data.
