Women's health hormones
Estradiol, progesterone, LH, and FSH sit on the same timeline as symptoms and wearables. Values stay in review until a clinician has signed them. This is context for the visit, not an automated diagnosis.
Science
Hormones, cycle, and reproductive health. Then the sport.
Women's health physiology is the base: hormones, menstrual cycle, and reproductive conditions on one chart. Sports medicine and exercise physiology sit on that record, for squads and for clinic visits.
Research pillars
Cycle as a vital sign
Cycle day and phase are read as physiology, for the clinic chart and the training week. Irregularity, amenorrhea, and heavy bleeding are clinical rows, not a wellness score.
Reproductive health
PCOS, endometriosis, functional hypothalamic amenorrhea, and perimenopause belong on the record beside load and labs. The clinic writes the assessment. The coach sees the note that changes the week, not the lab panel.
Cycle-phase periodization
Training load and recovery interpreted against menstrual cycle phase, not a static weekly plan.
REDs and energy availability
Clinical triage for relative energy deficiency, using labs, load, and symptoms together.
Neuromuscular and joint laxity
Windows of higher ACL and soft-tissue risk, flagged before high-strain plyometrics.
Iron deficiency and metabolic markers
Ferritin, hemoglobin, and related markers on the same timeline as training and cycle.
