Good app... But why is flow a symptom?

There are reasons other than fertility & pregnancy for tracking your period, like basic gynecological health or determining if your period will come back after chemo-induced menopause. I wish this app took these factors into account. A few minor changes can remedy this...

1) Make Flow its own section. Why is Flow under Symptoms? Your flow IS your period therefore it should have its own section among Symptoms, Moods, etc.
2) Within the Flow section you should be able to record:
-- How light or heavy your flow is with a 1-9 range from very light spotting to excessive bleeding.
-- The color of your flow with a 1-9 range from almost clear pink to very dark red/almost brown.

And a minor tweak to the Calendar UI would make reviewing your entries a lot easier... Rather than simply showing a pencil icon on a date in the calendar show the more detailed icons from within each section. Since each square on the calendar can only hold so many icons allow the user to indicate which icons they want displayed. For example, if only 4 icons can be shown a user might choose to show icons for how heavy their flow is, how bad their cramps are, how their appetite is, and if they enter any other notes.

If these features were in the app Id give it a higher rating.
