See whether difficult days repeat with the menstrual cycle.
ASH helps autistic young people record how they feel and helps carers build a prospective record across several menstrual cycles. The aim is to make recurring premenstrual changes — or worsening of difficulties that are already present — easier to discuss when PMDD or PME is being considered.

What ASH does
A diary first. A clearer conversation later.
ASH turns small daily observations into a longitudinal view that can be easier to discuss with a parent, therapist, psychiatrist, paediatrician or gynaecologist.
02
Track across cycles
ASH waits for at least three comparable completed cycles before presenting a repeated-pattern summary. One difficult month is not enough.
03
Share if useful
Families can use the dashboard or an export when discussing patterns with a healthcare professional.
Why several cycles matter
PMDD and PME are about repetition and timing.
ASH does not label a diagnosis. It compares repeated daily records so carers and clinicians can see whether symptoms rise before menstruation, whether they settle outside that window, or whether difficulties remain present through the cycle and become worse premenstrually.
A
Phase-limited change
A repeated premenstrual rise with relatively lower scores outside that phase is one kind of pattern a clinician may consider when evaluating PMDD.
B
Worsening of ongoing difficulties
If difficulties remain present outside the premenstrual phase but repeatedly intensify before menstruation, that longitudinal detail can be relevant when PME is considered.
C
Autism-aware observations
Sensory sensitivity, need for sameness, executive functioning, shutdown or overwhelm, impulsivity and communication effort are tracked separately rather than treated as PMDD diagnostic criteria.
ASH uses three comparable completed cycles as its own reporting threshold.This is a conservative product rule for showing repeated-pattern summaries, not a diagnostic criterion and not a substitute for clinical assessment.
Built around choice
The young person is not being tested.
“You choose whether you want to check in today. You can stop when you want. ASH is here to help you describe what has been happening — not to judge your answers.”

One clear question at a time
Designed for mobile use and low cognitive load.
Today at a glance
Completion status and recent entries without unnecessary detail.
Look for change over time
Review symptom, cycle and contextual information together across repeated cycles.
For parents & carers
A better record than memory alone.
Daily information can help families describe when symptoms changed, whether they returned toward baseline and what else was happening at the time.
For professionals
See exactly what was recorded.
ASH makes its questions and scoring transparent. It records observations; it does not calculate a diagnosis or recommend a treatment.
