Period Tracker Template (Printable PDF & GoodNotes)

Three pages. The cycle log tracks flow, cramps, mood, energy, headache, bloating, cravings and sleep across 31 days, with a table for each cycle's start, end, length and notes. Two year-at-a-glance pages give every month a row so you can colour your period days for the whole year.

How to use it

Getting the most from a period tracker.

  1. Rate symptoms 0 to 3

    0 for none, 1 mild, 2 moderate, 3 severe, or just a tick. A consistent scale shows which symptoms come at which point in your cycle.

  2. Colour the year pages as you go

    On the year at a glance, colour each day of your period. After a few months you'll see your typical cycle length and whether it's regular.

  3. Count cycle length from day one to day one

    In the cycles table, the length is from the first day of one period to the first day of the next. Write it down each time; your average is the best predictor of the next one.

  4. Track the days before your period too

    Mood, cravings, sleep and headaches often change in the week before. Seeing that on paper can be reassuring and helps you plan around it.

  5. Bring it to appointments

    If you're seeing a doctor about pain, heavy bleeding, irregular cycles or fertility, a few months of records is the most useful thing you can bring.

Questions

About this period tracker template

Need help importing it? See devices and apps or the FAQ.

What does the period tracker include?

A monthly cycle log with eight symptom rows across 31 days, a table of cycle start and end dates and lengths, and two year-at-a-glance pages, days 1–16 and 17–31, with a row for each month.

Is it private?

It's a PDF you keep on paper or in your own note app, with no account and nothing stored online by us.

Can I use it to track fertility?

It shows cycle length and symptoms, which helps with understanding your cycle, but it isn't a contraception or fertility method. The IVF and fertility journal has dedicated fertility pages.

Can teenagers use it?

Yes. It's a simple way for teens to learn their cycle and be ready for their period, and to have answers if a doctor asks.
