Menstrual Tracking for Men?

You can turn this off. User settings - scroll down to menstrual cycle and choose "cycle type - no period".

Yeah, pretty stupid that this automatically loads for people who specify gender as male…

What watch have you got. I have a forerunner 645M and I don't see menstrual tracking in GCMiOS or any option to turn it on. (I am a guy so assumed it was smart, but maybe it is watch dependent?)

Fenix 5x. The app didn't show it when I originally bought the watch. Now all the sudden it has hydration and menstrual tracking popping up. I suppose they added the feature recently.

guys, you are really exaggerating. what's the problem? just don't touch the button. perhaps there are many guys who want to track it for their girlfriend - just to be safe or for their peace in mind.

by the way, garmin, please remove the symtoms button! i don't have any symtoms and i don't want any.

Also wondering how to turn off hydration tracking . . . this really should be more easily configurable.
