Privacy-first architecture

Your data stays yours. Your symptoms stay seen.

A cycle & PMDD tracker built so your health data stays on your device and in your private iCloud — by design, we cannot access it.

Tracking & awareness tool. Not a substitute for professional medical advice or diagnosis. 18+.

What is PMDD?

A severe mood disorder tied to the menstrual cycle — real, diagnosable, and widely dismissed.

Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder affects an estimated 60 million people globally. It’s been recognized in the DSM-5 since 2013 — yet the average time to diagnosis is still 12 years, typically after four misdiagnoses. That’s over a decade of being told it’s “just PMS.”

What is Red Tent PMDD?

A privacy-first PMDD companion — built to shorten the diagnosis gap and support ethical research.

Track symptoms alongside your cycle, understand your own patterns, and read evidence-based education — so you can advocate for yourself with real data, not just a feeling you can’t quite explain.

Health data stays on your device and in your own private iCloud. We built it this way on purpose — we cannot read your logs.

Five pillars

Everything you need to understand your PMDD.

Awareness

Cycle tracking & symptom reports that reveal your real patterns.

Education

Evidence-based articles, written for you, not at you.

Community

Anonymous-friendly support from people who get it.

Resources

Crisis toolkit, safety plan, and a help finder when you need it now.

Research

Browse peer-reviewed PMDD research for free. Premium adds AI summaries and optional push alerts when new papers land. Opt in separately to share de-identified data and help advance the science.

Our #1 differentiator

Built so we architecturally cannot read your data.

Unlike other cycle trackers, your entries live on your device and in your own private iCloud — not in a central database we could access, sell, or lose. A structural guarantee, not a policy promise.

Your cycle could help end the 12-year diagnosis gap — for everyone after you.

PMDD is one of the most under-researched conditions in reproductive medicine: diagnostic delays average 12–20 years, treatment options are limited, and funding is scarce. We believe the collective, anonymized experiences of this community can change that.

Opt in, and your de-identified data joins an aggregated research dataset — revealing patterns in symptom timing, severity, and treatment response that no single record could show. Shared only as aggregated datasets, only with qualified women’s health researchers.

Entirely voluntary. Off by default. Not tied to Premium. Revocable anytime in Settings → Research Data Sharing.

Step 1 — your choice
You opt in, in Settings. Nothing is shared until you do.
Step 2 — de-identification
Your name, Apple ID, and identifiers are stripped. Your entries become anonymous data points.
Step 3 — aggregation
Your data joins other opt-in contributions — patterns emerge that no single record could show.
Step 4 — research impact
Aggregated insights go to qualified PMDD & women’s health researchers. Never sold. Never advertising.
Community

You’re not the only one in the tent.

Anonymous-friendly peer support, moderated with care — because the luteal phase is easier when someone else says “me too.”

Finally, an app that treats PMDD as real — not as a mood swing to push through.
