Use Drip, Use Mensinator. There are alternatives. Open source and FOSS.

I talked my wife into switching, some google app to drip. She loves it! Helps so much at the doctor’s office and helps predict when to expect monthly pain.

Both apps are fantastic. I find Mensinator easier to quickly input data and its simpler with the same functionality. But both are very nice though. I use both apps side by side just in case input errors or mismatches. So far so good.
