Next, the method for determining a female physical condition according to the present invention will be described in detail in connection with the operation of the female physical condition measuring device of the embodiment as described above.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a procedure for determining a physical condition of a woman according to the present invention, which appears in a monthly cycle. In step 1, the person to be determined presses the power switch 41a to turn on the power of the female physical condition management device 10.
In step 2, if the person to be determined presses the setting key 41 f, the female physical condition management apparatus 10 enters the setting mode and proceeds to step 3.

In step 3, the current date and time are set.
The current date and time displayed on the display device 42 are changed using the up key 41c and the down key 41d. The changed value is determined by pressing the setting key 41f again. Further, the previous menstruation start date is similarly input.

In step 4, the person to be measured sets the measurement key 41
If b is pressed, the female physical condition management apparatus 10 enters the measurement mode and proceeds to step 5, and if not pressed, enters the menstrual period data input mode and proceeds to step 14.

From step 5, the measurement mode starts. The person to be determined contacts the toes of the left sole and the right sole with the constant current applying electrodes 21a and 21b, and the heels of the left sole and the right sole with the voltage measuring electrodes 22a and 22b, respectively. When the user wears the bioelectrical impedance meter 20 with bare feet, the weight measuring device 25 detects the weight and starts measuring the weight of the subject.

In step 6, the high-frequency weak constant current generated by the high-frequency constant current circuit 23 is applied to the toe of the person to be determined via the constant current applying electrodes 21a and 21b. Spilled between the legs, including the lower abdomen. Then, the voltage between the voltage measurement electrodes 22a and 22b is measured by the voltage measurement circuit 24, and BI is measured. In step 7, the BI measured in step 6 is
The correction is performed based on the following correction formula. Correction formula 1: Weight correction BI = BI + A × Difference from the weight measured at the first time Correction formula 2: Weight correction BI = BI + B × Difference from the weight measured last time In other words, the weight correction BI is accompanied by an increase / decrease in weight from BI. BI
Is obtained by subtracting or adding the increase / decrease of, and is calculated from the correction formula 1 or the correction formula 2. Here, A and B are correction coefficients. Thus, the weight correction BI from which the influence of the weight change has been removed is calculated.

In step 8, the corrected BI value for several days up to the previous day and data such as physical condition and menstruation start date of the previous day are read into the CPU 45 from the storage device 44.

In step 9, the CPU 45 calculates the weight correction BI measured this time obtained in step 7 and the storage device 44 in step 8 based on the relationship between the BI and the physical condition of the woman in the monthly cycle as described above. From the weight correction BI measured for several days up to the previous day and the physical condition of the previous day, menstruation start date data, and the like, it is determined what kind of physical condition the subject is currently in. In other words, the physical condition of the first period (menstrual period), the second period (good period), the third period (maintenance period), the fourth period (upset period), and the fifth period (fertile period) Is determined.

Here, the physical condition determination will be described. However,
This determination example is for a person whose menstrual cycle is a 28-day cycle,
Since the menstrual cycle varies from individual to individual, the number of days in each period is appropriately changed according to the cycle of the user.

FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining a method of determining each period from the BI value. In this case, the first period (menstrual period) is about 7 days from the menstruation start date, and the second period (boom period) from the next day to the day when the BI value changes from the high value to the low value.
Approximately seven days from the day when the BI value changes to a low value are defined as a third period (maintenance period), and the period from the next day to the next menstruation start date is defined as a fourth period (impairment period). Furthermore, the three days before and after the BI changes from high to low are the fifth period (fertile period)
And As a criterion for the change of the BI value, it is assumed that when the low BI value of 4% or more of the average BI value in the past high BI period occurs, the BI value changes from the high BI period to the low BI period.

In the fourth period (upset period),
If a low BI value of 1% or more occurs in comparison with the past average BI value during the period, it is assumed that swelling has occurred, the swelling level is 1, and the low BI of 2% or more is set.
The swelling level is set to 2 and the swelling level 3 is set to a low BI value of 3% or more.

In the case of the subject shown in FIG. 4, the average value during the high BI value period is approximately 590Ω, and the average value during the low BI value period is approximately 560Ω.
It has become. Therefore, 23.6Ω, which is 4% of 590Ω
It is assumed that the period has shifted to the low BI value period when the low BI value of 566.4Ω or less is measured. Since the low BI value appeared on the fifteenth day, three days before and after this day are fertile.

The average BI value in the fourth period is 5
The 1% lower BI value is 554.4Ω or less, and the swelling level is 1, and the 2% lower BI value is 544.8Ω.
In the following, the swelling level is 2 and the BI value that is 3% lower is 543.
The swelling level becomes 3 at 2Ω or less.

Therefore, in the female physical condition management apparatus 10 of the present invention, each period appearing in the female monthly cycle is determined as follows. The date of the entered menstruation start date data is defined as the menstruation start date. One week from the start of menstruation, the first period (menstrual period)
And The period from the next day to the day before the BI value that is 4% lower than the average BI value in the past second period is measured is defined as a second period (good period). A period from the next day to one week before the next scheduled menstruation start date estimated from the past data is defined as a third period (maintenance period). The period from the next day to the date when the next menstrual start date data is input is defined as a fourth period (improper period). Also, based on the past data, the average number of days from the next expected menstruation start date to the ovulation date is calculated, and the three days before and after the estimated ovulation date are defined as a fifth period (fertile period). Here, the estimated ovulation date is 14 days before the expected menstruation start date. However, this fifth period (fertile period) is corrected when the change of the measured BI value from the high value period to the low value period is determined. That is, if ovulation due to the change in the BI value is determined earlier than the estimated ovulation date, three days from that date are set as a fifth period (fertile period). On the other hand, if the BI value does not change even after the estimated ovulation day, the fifth period (fertile period) is continued during that period, and up to three days after the ovulation due to the change in the BI value is determined. Is the fifth period (fertile period).

Based on the above-described determination method, it is determined whether the subject has not changed from the period up to the previous day or changed to the next period. It should be noted that this physical condition determination can be made by aligning the past measured BI values for one cycle, and the determination is not performed until the data is collected. In such a case, a message such as “data is not enough” is displayed on the display device 42.

In step 10, the CPU 45 selects an advice to be displayed on the display device 42 from a plurality of advices stored in the storage device 44 based on the result of the physical condition determination determined in step 9. At this time, the advice number displayed in the past stored in the storage device 44 is also checked so that the selection of the advice does not become the same as the past several days.

In step 11, the determined physical condition and the selected advice are displayed on the display device 42. As the determination result of the physical condition to be displayed, for example, during the first period during menstruation, during the second period during a favorable period, during the third period ovulation termination and physical condition maintenance period, during the fourth period before menstruation and The physical condition such as the sick period, the PMS period, and the fifth period is displayed.

Also, as advice related to the result of the physical condition determination, for example, “Before menstruation, PMS phase, swelling, it is easy to get irritated, take care, take vitamin B”
Foods such as "A little more patience during the menstrual period, be careful of anemia, take iron", "End of menstruation, exercise well, exercise aggressively", "Be careful of ovulation, physical decline, overeating" Attentions on living behavior including life are displayed. In the case of two periods (12 in FIG. 4)
On the 16th to 16th), advice for each period is selected and displayed on the display device 42 simultaneously or sequentially. FIG. 5 lists examples of advice. Here, three types of advice examples are shown for each period, but more advice is stored in the storage device 44.

In step 12, the weight correction BI measured this time, the weight, the current physical condition, the measurement date, the displayed advice number, and the like are stored in the storage device 44. Thereafter, in step 13, the power is automatically turned off, and the measurement ends.

From step 14, the menstrual period data input mode starts. The determined person selects a desired date displayed on the display device 42 by pressing the up key 41c or the down key 41d. In step 15, it is determined whether the person to be determined has pressed the menstruation start date key 41e. If the key has been pressed, in step 16, the date selected in step 14 is stored in the storage device 44 as the menstruation start date. Is done. On the other hand, if the key has not been pressed in step 15, it is determined in step 17 whether the power switch 41a has been pressed by the person to be determined.
At 3 the power is turned off and the input ends.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the second embodiment, it is possible to input the target weight of the user to the women's physical condition management device,
Appropriate advice is displayed based on the target weight, the measured current weight, and the BI value. It is said that a woman's body has an increase in basal metabolism on the day of ovulation. This is because basal body temperature increases after ovulation, so basal metabolism also increases. In other words, during this period, the exercise efficiency, which indicates the amount of calorie consumption during exercise, increases, and it is said that calories can be efficiently consumed, and this is the most suitable period for performing a diet. On the other hand, from one week before menstruation to the beginning of menstruation, basal metabolism decreases and exercise efficiency is poor, and exercise cannot be expected to be effective. Also, at this time, it is said that there is no need to worry about a slight weight gain because the body easily accumulates water and swelling occurs. Therefore, it is desirable to be at rest without exerting excessive force. In addition, it is generally said that from the menstruation to the ovulation period, the person is in the best physical condition, and it is desirable to be active in anything, and that it is not bad to go on a diet at this time.

Therefore, during the third period after the ovulation day (maintenance period), advice for prompting the user to actively diet is displayed, and during the fourth period of one week before menstruation (disorder period), exercise is performed. Is displayed, and during the second period from the menstruation to the day of ovulation (good period), advice not only for dieting but also for encouraging active activities is displayed.
