Picture Portraying 5 Reasons To Track Your Period + Free Period Tracker

It’s been quite some time since I shared a free printable so here it goes! A beautiful, minimalistic, and just “clean” period tracker is on the spot today.

Now, I hope you’re all already tracking your periods, but just in case you don’t (yet), here are just a few reasons to start doing it!

 

5 Reasons To Track Your Period

 

  • It helps you to check if your period is regular (this can say a lot about your overall health as well).
  • It’s important if you’re planning to get pregnant or don’t want to get pregnant, because you can be aware of your fertile days.
  • It’s extremely helpful to your doctor if she / he needs to see your cycle health. This can happen if your period becomes irregular and your doctor needs to see how regular your periods were before.
  • It helps you to stay aware of when your next period is about to begin (which is very helpful when you need to plan things like vacations, celebrations, and other days you would rather spend when NOT on your period);
  • It can help you to see your PMS patterns and help explain some things like mood swings, breast tenderness, and other PMS symptoms.
