Eight percent documented against more than half symptomatic says the gap Apple Health just inherited was already sitting in the charts. A cycle-tracking category in the app doesn't move that number much if clinicians still aren't writing perimenopause into the note itself

Agreed! A cycle-tracking category in the app is just a UI change. Perimenopause/Menopause missing from the note is a clinical documentation problem, and no amount of patient-side tracking will fix it on its own.
