    CyMe [si:][mi:]: Personalized and Seamless Menstrual Health Tracking
    (Mensch und Computer 2024 - Workshopband, 2024) Principe, Marinja; Stebler, Debs; Sou, Davinny; Kowatsch, Tobias; Nißen, Marcia
    Menstruating individuals experience various physiological and psychological changes throughout their reproductive lives and each menstrual cycle. Although numerous menstrual health tracking apps, exist, there is limited research on the impact of customization options and personalized visualizations of menstrual cycle data and associated symptoms on user experiences. Furthermore, evidence on the long-term effects of these features on menstrual health awareness and literacy is sparse. This demo contribution presents “CyMe” [siː][miː], a menstrual health tracking prototype designed to support the different needs of individuals while focusing on a simple yet effective reporting approach integrating smartphone and smartwatch data. CyMe focuses on customization options for seamless data reporting and personalized visualizations, enabling users to focus on their individual menstrual health challenges. CyMe also aims to enhance the user experience by giving the user agency over the look and feel of the application, allowing them to adjust self-reporting options, colors, and reminders and connect different sensor devices. This approach should support the wide range of needs of menstruating individuals to be seen and allow users to get actionable insights into their menstrual health.

    Please CyMe: Towards Enhancing Menstrual Health Awareness through Customization and Personalized Visualization in a Menstrual Health App
    (Proceedings of Mensch und Computer 2024, 2024) Sou, Davinny; Stebler, Debs; Principe, Marinja; Kowatsch, Tobias; Nißen, Marcia
    Menstruating individuals experience various physiological and psychological changes throughout their reproductive lives and each menstrual cycle (MC). Although numerous digital health technologies (DHTs), such as menstrual health (MH) tracking apps, exist, there is limited research on how customization options and personalized visualizations of MC data and associated symptoms impact user experiences with these technologies. Furthermore, evidence on the long-term effects of these features on MH awareness and literacy is sparse. Therefore, the goals of this research are twofold: First, we examine users’ current experiences and needs regarding MH (technologies) in an online survey with 272 participants, highlighting a discrepancy between individuals’ perceptions and their actual understanding of their MH and its impact on their well-being. Yet, participants showed a strong interest in understanding and managing their MH through DHTs. Desired improvements in MH technologies include more accurate prediction of MC phases, as well as more comprehensive insights and support in managing MH through customization and personalization. Second, to examine how customization options and personalized visualizations of MH data affect user engagement and improve MH awareness and literacy in a longitudinal study with up to 70 participants, we are currently developing the MH study app CyMe [si:][mi:].
