Cougar Puberty™ is an educational resource designed to help women recognize and understand patterns during perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause.

Educational Guidance, Not Medical Advice

This app offers educational insights and self-reflection tools to help you understand patterns during hormonal transitions. It does not diagnose medical conditions, prescribe treatments, or replace professional medical care. The guidance provided is based on common experiences and research, but every person's journey is unique. If you have concerns about your health, or if symptoms feel severe or disruptive, please consult a qualified healthcare provider.

The Service provides:

  • Pattern recognition based on self-reported signals
  • Educational frameworks for understanding hormonal transitions
  • Lifestyle-oriented guidance and self-reflection prompts
  • Language and context to support medical advocacy

The Service does not:

  • Diagnose health conditions or diseases
  • Prescribe medications, supplements, or medical treatments
  • Replace consultation with qualified healthcare providers
  • Provide emergency medical services
