Cycle

About Cycle

From Debian's package description

Cycle is a calendar for women. Given a cycle length or statistics for several periods, it can calculate the days until menstruation, the days of "safe" sex, the fertile period, and the days to ovulations, and define the d.o.b. of a child. It allows the user to write notes and helps to supervise the administration of hormonal contraceptive tablets.

Possibilities of the program:

• Calculate days of menstruation, based on the length of the cycle or on statistics of previous periods.
• Calculate days of "safe" sex, fertile period and day to ovulations.
• Definition of D.O.B. (Date Of Birth) of a child
• Allows one to write notes.
• Helps to supervise reception of hormonal contraceptive tablets.
• Multiple users allowed. Data is protected by a password for every user.

NOTE: This program is not a reliable contraceptive method. It does neither help to prevent sexual transmission diseases like AIDS. It is just an electronic means of keeping track of some of your medical data and extract some statistical conclusions from them. You cannot consider this program as a substitute for your gynecologist in any way.
