Built to make sense
of menopause
If you use TALIA consistently, three things will be true within months:
- You will understand the pattern of what is happening to you
- You will stay consistent on the things that actually help
- You will walk into your next GP appointment with structured evidence that cannot be dismissed.
TALIA does not promise to 'fix' you. It promises to help you make sense of what’s happening, build the evidence you need, and stay consistent on what works — and to do all of this without ever taking your data off your phone.

TODAY SCREEN (HOME)
NAVIGATION BAR>> TODAY
WHAT IS THIS FOR?
This is your daily check-in and where TALIA opens by default.
Use Today to log what you’re noticing by recording Symptoms, Triggers and Changes Over Time. Don't worry - you will get a daily reminder to log (which can be turned off in Settings). We strongly recommend logging every day (even multiple times) because TALIA can then bring all your data together so patterns and Trends over time become easier to see. If you don't log symptoms your History will default to All Good.
This screen also shows you your top 5 symptom trends on graphs, the next HRT dose/s and Other Meds and Supplements you’re due and when to take them, along with a visual calendar for the current month. HRT Routine shows how consistent you have been with your medication. If supply tracking is enabled, you’ll see an overview of your current stock.
The calendar displays logged Symptoms and, if you’ve chosen to track your cycle, your Period too. You can tap on any past day in the current month to see what you logged on that date. For full, daily details of everything you’ve recorded over time, go to History or Period.
SYMPTOMS
TODAY>> SYMPTOMS
WHAT IS THIS FOR?
Use this section to log recognised menopause Symptoms from a predefined list. You can record severity by tapping on each symptom to cycle through mild, moderate, or severe.
It's helpful to log all Symptoms you experience, even if they feel minor. This creates a consistent record that can be reviewed over time.
THINGS TO KNOW
- Symptoms are grouped by type e.g Physical, Emotional & Cognitive, Sleep & Temperature, Sexual & Vaginal and Menstrual & Bleeding.
- You can choose the severity you are experiencing: mild, moderate or severe.
- As you log your frequently selected Symptoms will appear at the top to make things faster.
- Symptoms that can be viewed as Changes Over Time are found via the button on the Today screen.
TRIGGERS
TODAY>>TRIGGERS
WHAT IS THIS FOR?
Use this section to record factors that may influence how you feel - such as emotional strain, poor sleep or a change in routine. Triggers help provide context for changes to Symptoms over time.
Triggers are logged as present or not present — they do not have severity levels.
THINGS TO KNOW
- Triggers are optional but useful for spotting patterns and seeing if certain things have an effect on your Symptoms.
- You can log multiple Triggers on the same day.
- Triggers don't imply cause - they simply add context.
CHANGES OVER TIME
TODAY>>CHANGES
WHAT IS THIS FOR?
This is where you track physical changes you notice over time rather than coming and going like other Symptoms. These can help you spot patterns and understand how your body is responding.
THINGS TO KNOW
-
Active Changes Your current, ongoing changes are listed here. Each one shows when it started. Tap End when the change is no longer present.
-
Available Changes Select from the list to add a new change. Once added, it will move into your Active Changes.
-
Changes Over Time (History) Ended changes are stored here, with a clear time range.
You can edit or delete past entries if needed.
Tracking changes over time helps build a clearer picture of what’s shifting—and when.
NOTES

YOUR HRT
NAVIGATION BAR>>MENU>>YOUR HRT

Use this section to record Your HRT prescriptions and how you use them.
This helps you build an accurate record and relate Symptoms to treatment over time.
You can log the hormone type, form, method of application, dose, and frequency.
THINGS TO KNOW
-
HRT details can be updated at any time
-
Reminders are optional and can be turned on or off. They are based on an hour slot around the time you logged your last dose . Being consistent with your HRT is important which is why inputting as much information as possible will help you keep on track.
- Progesterone that is cycle-based has two options for set up - either using the first date of your last period (which is inputted under Period Tracker) or by inputting your existing schedule using the first day of your last progesterone cycle. You can then adjust the length of cycle which defaults to 12 days.
-
There is a freeform field to add your HRT brand if you choose.
- There is a Custom HRT functionality for women on new or niche types of treatment.
PERIOD TRACKER (OPTIONAL)
NAVIGATION BAR>> PERIOD
WHAT IS THIS FOR?
Use the Period Tracker to record days of bleeding and observe cycle patterns over time. The Calender view is monthly and allows you to log flow as spotting, light, medium, or heavy.
Based on your Settings it will predict your Period.
THINGS TO KNOW
-
The Period Tracker can be turned on or off in Settings. A reminder notification to log will be on by default. TALIA will send you one reminder to log on the first day of your predicted Period. It is then up to you log the rest of the flow days.
- There is a Period Key which explains that flow is visually shown using different colours and spotting is shown with a dot above the date.
-
Cycle predictions adjust as more data is logged.
-
If you have logged any Symptoms you will see a bar underneath the date. For full details go to the History section.

SLEEP PATTERNS
NAVIGATION BAR>> MENU>>SLEEP PATTERNS
WHAT IS THIS FOR?
Use Sleep Patterns to record how you slept and observe what disrupts your nights over time. Each morning TALIA asks how you feel — Shattered, Tired, OK, or Rested — in a single tap. The Today view shows your last 14 mornings as a colour-coded strip, and Trends shows an 8-week chart, so you can see the pattern alongside your HRT and symptoms.
THINGS TO KNOW
- Sleep Patterns can be turned on or off in Settings. A daily reminder to log in the morning is on by default, set to a time you choose (8:00am to start). It is then up to you to complete each morning's check-in.
- The morning check-in is one tap. If you select Shattered or Tired, a second question appears asking what disrupted your sleep - choose any that apply or add a note for anything not listed.
- Each morning is shown in a colour-coded strip from Shattered to Rested, and nights with a logged disruption show a marker beneath the date. You can log past nights retrospectively.
- If you are on HRT, your dose timing is shown on the same strip, and for cyclical progesterone the cycle window is marked too.
- For the fuller picture see the 8-week chart in Trends; your logged sleep is also included in your Doctor's Report and your iCloud backup.
