Ladies: Here are 5 period tracking apps for you to try

Periods usually arrive once each month, but the exact date, flow, cramp severity, and accompanying symptoms are not quite that consistent.

For this very reason, the app market is flooded with period trackers that aim to offer insight into your monthly cycle.

Tracking your period can be useful for several reasons. Period tracking can help you to get to know your own body and cycle and observe any symptoms such as mood swings or headaches that may occur during a particular phase of your cycle.

Using period tracking apps can help tell you when you are likely to be most fertile if you are avoiding pregnancy or trying to become pregnant.

Although there are hundreds of these apps, we have selected these 5 and they work just well.
