The PMDD Tracking PDF bundles your logged cycles and daily symptoms into pages you can review with a clinician—it reflects what you logged, not a diagnosis. After you generate a preview on Export Report (see Export a PDF report), swipe through Page X of Y to match each section below.
What the report PDF contains
- PMDD Tracking Report — built on your device from daily logs in the cycle range you chose when exporting.
- Not a diagnosis — the cover disclaimer and Important Disclaimer on the mapping appendix frame it as a tracking summary for healthcare conversations.
- Custom Analysis charts and timeframe selections never appear — only daily logs aggregated into DRSP and DSM-5 views.
- Optional Username on the cover and inner page headers when Patient Name was on during export — see Export a PDF report for the privacy toggle.
- Fixed page order: cover → DSM-5 reference → all DRSP month pages → all DSM-5 criterion month pages → two mapping appendix pages.
How pages are numbered
- Total pages = 1 cover + 1 DSM-5 info + (months × 2) + 2 mapping pages.
- Months = calendar months overlapping the export date range — not the same as cycle count alone.
- Monthly block order in the file: every DRSP month page first, then every DSM-5 criterion month page (not alternating month-by-month).
- Inner pages show Page X of Y in the header — the same numbering in the Export Report preview carousel and the saved PDF.
Use the Export Report preview
01
Export Report
Open Export Report from the Reports header share icon — full tap path is in Export a PDF report. This article covers what each preview page means, not how to export.
02
Report Generated Successfully
Wait until preview generation finishes before swiping. While pages build, you may see Generating report... with progress messages.
03
Page X of Y
The label above the preview carousel shows which page you are viewing. Swipe the carousel left or right to move through the PDF sequence at reduced scale — fine checkmarks are clearer in the exported file.
04
Saved PDF
After export, the file you save in Files, Mail, or a patient portal follows the same page order and Page X of Y headers as the in-app preview.
Cover page
01
PMDD Tracking Report
Page 1 title. Subtitle reads DSM-5 Criteria Assessment with the Red Tent PMDD logo.
02
Cycle History
Per-cycle date ranges with period-flow mini charts when chart data exists. When charts are unavailable, menstrual length and cycle length summaries appear instead.
03
Average Cycle Length
Mean ± standard deviation in days across logged cycles in the export range. Average Menstrual Length appears the same way when cycle charts are unavailable.
04
Date Range
The export window you selected. Generated at shows when the PDF was built.
05
Username
Appears only when Patient Name was on during export — the row label reads Username, not Patient Name.
06
Cover disclaimer
States the report is not a substitute for medical advice. No DRSP symptom grid on this page — only cycle summary and metadata.
DSM-5 diagnostic criteria page
- Page 2 after the cover — static reference with DSM-5 criteria A–G for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (ICD code 625.4 / N94.3).
- Educational content only — no user log values on this page.
- Plasma Hormone Levels reference chart — a general hormone-level graph, not your personal lab results.
- Useful context when discussing DSM-5 framing with a clinician.
- Header may show DSM5 - Diagnostic Criteria & Plasma Hormone Levels in English regardless of app language.
Daily Record of Severity of Problems tables
01
Daily Record of Severity of Problems
One page per calendar month in the export range. Header shows the month and year — or patient name plus month when Username was provided.
02
Severity scale
Instruction paragraph explains levels 1 (not at all) through 6 (extreme). Each logged day shows a checkmark at the severity you recorded.
03
Timing rows
Weekday initial, S (spotting), M (menstrual bleeding), and calendar day number across the top — no Cycle Day row on DRSP pages (that row appears on DSM-5 criterion pages).
04
Symptoms
Eleven numbered DRSP symptom questions with per-day checkmarks at logged severity levels.
05
Impact
Three DRSP impact questions (D1–D3) with the same per-day severity grid. Footer cites IAPMD reference and Endicott/Harrison adoption.
06
Empty cell
No log for that day — sparse or recent logging produces empty cells and thinner monthly pages.
DSM-5 Criterion Symptom Details pages
01
DSM-5 Criterion Symptom Details
One page per calendar month — header reads DSM-5 Criterion Symptom Details - {Month Year}. Patient name may appear when Username was provided.
02
Severity legend
Levels 1 (not at all) through 6 (extreme); empty cell means no log for that day or criterion.
03
Cycle Day
Computed from logged cycles — phase context appears here, not on DRSP tables.
04
Timing rows
Same weekday, S, M, and calendar-day pattern as the DRSP tables for that month.
05
Criterion heatmap
Per-criterion cells show aggregated daily severity — the highest severity among mapped trackable items for that day sets the value.
06
B, C, D groups
Rotated group descriptions in the right margin align heatmap rows to DSM-5 symptom groups.
07
Footer
This report contains confidential health information. For healthcare provider use only.
DSM-5 Criterion Mapping Information
01
DSM-5 Criterion Mapping Information
Last two pages — reference appendix with no user-specific values. Page one covers criteria A1–C2; page two covers C3–D3.
02
Introduction
Explains that the highest daily severity among mapped symptoms sets each criterion value on the heatmap pages.
03
Criterion blocks
Each block lists DSM-5 Description, DRSP Question, and mapped app symptom names. Impact criteria (D rows) show a Data Collection note instead of symptom names.
04
Important Disclaimer
Tracking tool only — consult a professional; not a diagnosis. Use when a clinician asks how app trackables relate to DSM-5 or DRSP items.
Reading severity checkmarks and heatmap colors
- 1 — not at all
- 2 — minimal
- 3 — mild
- 4 — moderate
- 5 — severe
- 6 — extreme
- Empty — no log for that day or criterion; sparse logging yields thin monthly pages.
Using the PDF with a clinician
- Bring the PDF as a structured log summary — not proof of PMDD or a self-diagnosis.
- Start with cover Cycle History and DRSP monthly tables for temporal pattern review.
- Use DSM-5 criterion heatmap pages to discuss aggregated daily severity aligned to groups B, C, and D.
- Open the mapping appendix when your clinician asks how app symptoms map to DSM-5 or DRSP items.
- See PMDD and tracking for broader visit framing beyond the PDF itself.
- How to generate and share the PDF → Export a PDF report.
- Export fails or preview never finishes → Report or PDF will not generate.
- Privacy and what leaves your device → Privacy and legal.
- Reports tab context before export → Reports tab overview.
✦The PDF summarizes your tracking for conversations with a clinician—it does not diagnose PMDD or replace professional judgment.
🔒The exported PDF contains confidential health information—logged symptoms, severity checkmarks, cycle dates, and per-day tracking on every DRSP and DSM-5 criterion page. Red Tent does not store the PDF on its servers; it is built on your device from iCloud-synced logs. The file leaves your phone only when you choose a share-sheet destination (Mail, Files, AirDrop, a patient portal)—confirm who can open it before sending. Turning on Patient Name during export adds identifiable text on the cover and inner page headers (shown as Username); leave that toggle off for a less identifiable file (see Export a PDF report).
