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.
