Yes, that's right. With the upcoming iOS 9 update, the iPhone's Health app will finally be able to track a person's period. A year ago, Apple unleashed its first fitness tracking app onto the world. "Health," the iPhone app that makes use of the HealthKit platform, was able to track your weight, steps, blood glucose, and even your inhaler use. It could be used for almost every metric a human might think of — if you forget, as Apple did, that some humans menstruate fairly regularly. Now Apple is changing that; it's introducing reproductive health for everyone.[/quote]
Finally. I wonder if it relates the 28 day cycle to things like weight fluctuations. My sister stopped using most workout technology because the devices would try to shame her for gaining weight she could not control due to hormone/uterus changes.
Wow. I demand it be able to track sperm count next.
It would be really cool tho if one could implant some sort of analytical unit that could also tell the amounts of antibodies and for example tell you if you catch some virus or such and you would get to know before the tangible symptoms even show up.

Holy shit the iPad 2 is getting iOS9? That thing is ~5 years old, holy moly
iOS 9 is also meant to be a stability/bugfix update with support for older devices that iOS 8 runs like crap on.
