Menstrual Tracking for Men?

I know i suffer from male PMS on occasion, but shouldn't this app be smart enough to remove this feature if the user is a male or give us the option to remove it?

This was inadvertently turned on for users who selected Male in their profiles. This has been resolved and cleaned up. Any users who are still seeing this should reply to this post so we know if we need…

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…

This is driving me up a wall. I get notified several times a day that menstrual cycle tracking is not available with my gender setting. I have never cared about tracking that in my previous 56 years as a male human but now I guess it's a problem. There does not appear to be any way to fix this that I can find.

I do not have any such menstrual tracking in my Garmin Connect account. There must be a reason, if you have. Did you already look into your trunks?

well, this still has not been fixed. I have all the settings configured correctly. Went in there again and disabled all reminders, indicated no period, etc. We shall see if it turns off, I doubt it.

I get asked this every Sunday night, although my setting says "no period". Can you add an option to turn this off?

I may have found a fix for the weekly reminder to log my symptoms.

In the Connect app choose "... More"
Then choose "Health & Performance"
Then choose "Menstrual Cycle"
Then choose the vertical "..." in the top right and choose "Reminders" from the pop-up list
Then toggle the "Logging reminder" off

Well, it looks like the only solution to this problem is to uninstall the software and use a competitor’s device.

I’m not able to remove menstrual tracker. There is no options in web settings to remove it.
