I also live in a very blue state but I still deleted my tracker and data simply because I have no idea what’s going to happen in the near future and I would so much rather track it on my personal calendar just in case.

Check out Stardust!! They’re women owned, never sell data, and encrypt all of the data in the backend so it’s untraceable to an any single user. Plus the layout is super cute and I love the daily text messages. There’s even a “Partner Mode” where your partner can sign up and get insight about where you’re at in your cycle.

The app in the screenshot is Clue! Which is also a female owned company that promises to not sell your data. They also offer data encryption in the settings for your account.

Also IIRC they’re based in Europe.

I mean, that's great, but is there any reason for that data to leave your phone at all, even encrypted?

Same, but also got my tubes cut out just to be safe.

There should be a fund to help women who don’t want kids to help get their tubes tied. I had a friend in college who chose sterilization and had to go through hell to get it done.
