Refined the prototypes referred to the result of user testing with 9 participants
This feature reframes emotional fluctuations from "mood problems" to "cycle information." It validates that mood changes are physiological, predictable, and manageable when understood in context. Users move from self-criticism to self-awareness, from reactive emotions to proactive emotional wellness.
Through analyze the daily routine and cycle pattern based on the records, the app presents how the routine impacts on your hormonal changes and suggest them for a better hormonal experience.
The combination of quick logging and intelligent AI creates a system that works with you, not against you. Tracking becomes effortless, insights become personal, and guidance becomes contextual.
Reflection & What I Would Do Further
Design for lifelong wellness with privacy and trust
I would like to create an app that genuinely grows with women through every life stage, enables partners to understand through selective sharing, and maintains clear AI boundaries—designing for lifelong wellness rather than a single phase.
Life stage flexibility
Menstruation is only one chapter in women's hormonal lives.
How might we design a modular system that evolves from cycle tracking, pregnancy support, perimenopause management, to post-menopausal wellness for a lifelong companion.
Privacy-first sharing
Relationship understanding is the most powerful design catalyst.
By designing a privacy-first sharing system where women control what to disclose creates trust without surveillance to support increasing emotional support between partners or family.
Clear boundaries for AI Assistant
How might we design AI Assistant that users feel safe exploring questions without false certainty.
Next steps involve rigorous safety testing with healthcare providers and implementing clear escalation pathways when users need professional care.
