Tools: Bloom update: new HRT tools, emotional support features, and a full medication database
Source: Dev.to
I’ve been deep in developing Bloom lately, and constantly having new ideas, so this update brings some of the biggest improvements so far. This release strengthens the core tools and adds a brand‑new searchable HRT medication database. Bloom’s HRT section now reflects how people actually manage their regimens. Medication regimen templates for patches, injections, pills, and gel Custom reminders for dose times, patch changes, injections, and labs Injection site rotation tracker Lab result logging with charts Transition is emotional and nonlinear, so Bloom’s journaling tools stay gentle and low‑pressure. Dysphoria/euphoria tags Transition milestone tracking Guided prompts, including a low‑energy mode for tough days Bloom is built for people who can’t always be out or safe. Optional PIN/biometric lock Discreet mode to rename or hide the app You can now open Medication Database from the sidebar (look for the database icon) to browse clear, accessible info on common HRT medications. Search by name or purpose Filters: Estrogen, Anti‑Androgen, Progestin, Testosterone, Other Generic & brand names Administration routes Side effects & warnings Covers estradiol (all forms), spironolactone, bicalutamide, progesterone, testosterone (injections, gel, patch), Lupron, and more. A medical disclaimer reminds users to consult their providers. Want to try Bloom or share feedback? If any of this speaks to you, I’d love for you to check Bloom out and tell me what you think. It’s still evolving, and community feedback genuinely shapes what I build next. Whether you have ideas, critiques, or thoughts — I would love to hear them. Templates let you quickly answer FAQs or store snippets for re-use. Are you sure you want to hide this comment?
