Did anyone else get this message from Mira? Because it scared the shit out of me.
I’m 40 and planning to start trying for baby #2 next cycle, so fertility is already something I think about way more than I’d like.
This morning I did my Mira test (CD14). My estrogen is starting to rise, my LH is still low (which is normal for me because I usually ovulate around CD18–19), and PDG is low because I haven’t ovulated yet.
Then I clicked on my FSH result (6.6), and it said:
“Keep using the Mira 4 wands to track your progress through the menopause transition.”
What. The. Fuck.
I immediately spiraled. Is the app telling me my results suggest I’m entering menopause? Is this just some generic message? Why would it show that to someone who’s literally using the fertility setting and trying to get pregnant?
Especially because the messages on my other hormones were things like, “Your fertile window is approaching” and “Your E3G is rising.” So everything else sounded completely normal, and then BAM… “menopause transition.”
If this is just generic text attached to the FSH page and not actually based on my results, I honestly think they need to change it. There has to be a better way to word it. Women in their late 30s and 40s who are using Mira are already anxious enough without getting jump-scared by the word menopause with zero explanation.
Has anyone else gotten this message? Am I missing something, or is this just really bad messaging?
