Flatcracker Software announced the release of Lady Biz 3.0, a specially designed iPhone application that enables women to record and track vital daily health details including menstruation details, sleep patterns, waking temperature, weight, and more.
This unique application is the brainchild of creators Shane and Karin McLean. After years of unsuccessfully trying to conceive a child, and countless appointments with various doctors and specialists all asking Karin to track and report numerous bits of detailed information, keeping an accurate record for the next doctor's appointment developed into an overwhelming ordeal. "My husband created Lady Biz for me while we were trying to conceive. During that time, it helped me track my cycles, waking temperature, and intimacy...everything my doctor needed me to track. Before Lady Biz, I was tracking it all on paper, but Lady Biz made it a no-brainer and the password protection ensures the information stays between me and my doctor," says Karin McLean.
With an intuitive and easy to use interface, women find that keeping track of pertinent health data empowers them to be a co-owner in their health related efforts. Concise and easy to read graphs and trend reports are generated from the data that is collected. Karin McLean explains, "The reporting feature enables me to easily email reports directly to my doctor, or refer to them when those important appointment questions are asked."
"I believe I finally got pregnant because I helped my doctors pinpoint the best solution for me. I used Lady Biz through my pregnancy to track vitamins, exercise, and weight. Since giving birth, it's been the perfect way to track my pregnancy weight loss and is helping me get on track with my new cycles," concludes Mrs. McLean.
