BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a physical condition management apparatus for women for determining physical condition appearing in a woman's monthly cycle such as an ovulation day, PMS period, menstrual period, and pregnancy possible period.
[0002]
[Prior art]
The physical condition that appears in a woman's monthly cycle is closely related to basal body temperature. As shown in Fig. 1, the basal body temperature changes from the low temperature period to the high temperature period from the day of ovulation, and the day when the menstruation starts. It is known that the transition from the high temperature period to the low temperature period. Conventionally, using this relationship, the change in basal body temperature is measured each morning when waking up with a basal thermometer for women, and the physical condition that appears in the woman's monthly cycle is determined by manually recording it in a table or graph format on paper. I came.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In this physical condition judgment based on the transition of the basal body temperature, the basal body temperature has to be measured usually for about 5 minutes while standing in the recumbent position when getting up every day. It is pain. Moreover, in the weight scale with a fat scale, as the standby display screen during measurement, the same shape is displayed stepwise from the left end as soon as the measurement of body fat starts. In this case, since there is no movement, some people may get bored.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Before describing the physical condition management apparatus for women of the present invention, first, the inventor of the present invention finds out by repeating the measurement for a plurality of subjects, and the basis for determination by the female physical condition management apparatus according to the present invention, which will be described later, The relationship between the bioelectrical impedance value (hereinafter referred to as BI) and the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle will be described with reference to the measurement results. The measurement results shown below are measurement results measured every day when the subject wakes up, and BI is measured between both feet.
[0011]
First, the outline of the periodicity of the transition of BI will be described. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the transition of BI and basal body temperature, and is a graph showing the average value of two adjacent measured values by the moving average method. is there. From FIG. 2, although BI shows a large variation, the overall trend is that the basal body temperature shows a high value in the low temperature period, a low value in the high temperature period, and a low value after a temporary increase from just before menstruation to the first half of menstruation. It turns out that it changes periodically like showing a value.
[0012]
Next, the relationship between BI and body weight will be described. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the transition of body weight. It can be seen from FIG. 3 that the subject's weight gradually decreases during the measurement period. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a correlation between BI and body weight. From FIG. 4, there is a significant negative correlation between BI and body weight with a correlation coefficient R = 0.527, that is, BI increases when body weight decreases and BI decreases when body weight increases. I understand that there is. Such a relationship is generally considered to occur because the water in the body also increases or decreases with an increase or decrease in body weight, and the BI also generally increases or decreases with an increase or decrease in the water in the body. From the above, it can be seen that the BI shown in FIG. 2 is affected by the weight loss shown in FIG.
[0013]
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a transition of the weight correction BI from which the influence of the weight change as described above is removed. The weight correction BI is obtained by subtracting or adding the increase / decrease in BI accompanying the increase / decrease in weight from the BI, and is calculated from the correction formula 1 or the correction formula 2. Here, A and B are correction coefficients.
[0014]
Correction formula 1: Weight correction BI = BI + A × difference from the weight measured first time
Correction formula 2: Weight correction BI = BI + B × difference from previously measured weight
Comparing FIG. 5 and FIG. 2, it can be seen that the transition of the weight correction BI from which the influence of the weight change is removed shows a clearer periodicity than the transition of the uncorrected BI.
[0015]
Next, the relationship between BI, basal body temperature, and PMS will be described. 2 and 5, BI shows a high value in the low temperature period of the basal body temperature and a low value in the high temperature period, but on the contrary, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. It can be seen that the value is low from just before menstruation to the first half of menstruation. As shown in FIG. 6, a significant correlation between the weight correction BI and the basal body temperature is not confirmed (correlation coefficient R = 0.424).
[0016]
As a factor of the low BI value that appears in the low temperature period of the basal body temperature from just before menstruation to the first half of menstruation, it is considered that the woman's body stores water during this period and causes swelling. The swelling increases the water in the body, and the increase in the water in the body causes a decrease in BI. Therefore, it can be seen that there is a relationship between the transition of the BI and the basal body temperature and swelling that the BI shows a low value with the occurrence of swelling, and then the BI shows a high value with the disappearance of the swelling. This suggests that it is possible to determine swelling that was impossible from basal body temperature based on the transition of BI. It is also known that swelling that appears before menstruation is closely related to PMS, PMS appears with swelling, and the worse the swelling, the heavier the PMS. Therefore, it can be understood that the PMS can be determined in the same manner as the swelling determination based on the transition of the BI.
[0017]
Next, the relationship between the BI and the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle will be described. FIGS. 7 and 8 are diagrams showing changes in the weight correction BI and the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle and the basal body temperature. FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 clearly show that BI periodically changes in relation to the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle. Then, by using the relationship between the BI shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 and the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle, the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle can be determined based on the transition of the BI. It suggests that it will be possible. Therefore, for example, from FIGS. 7 and 8 and the above description, the date of ovulation is determined by the fact that the BI has changed from a high value to a low value, the swelling and PMS are determined, and the rise of the BI indicates the end of the PMS. It is possible to determine the physical condition that appears in the woman's monthly cycle, such as determining the end of menstruation when the BI is stable at a high value. There are three types of fluctuations in the BI value during the PMS period. In the type A person shown in FIG. 7, the BI value temporarily rises and falls immediately before menstruation. In this type, it can be predicted that PMS symptoms will appear. For people of type B, the BI value does not increase or decrease and does not change. For people of type C, the BI value decreases. Here, when the BI value is decreasing, the above-mentioned PMS symptoms such as frustration have occurred. There is also swelling.
[0018]
As described above, in the example of the subject, the relationship between the BI measured between both feet and the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle has been described above, but the above relationship has not been confirmed only in this subject, and in other subjects The same relationship has been confirmed and is universally applicable to general women. Further, not only the BI measured between both feet, but the same relationship as the above-mentioned relationship is also confirmed between the BI measured between both hands and between the limbs and the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle. However, since the above-mentioned relationship was found most prominently in the case of BI measured between both feet, it is preferable to use the BI measured between both feet at the time of determination.
[0019]

[0026]
Next, the operation of the female physical condition measuring apparatus of the embodiment as described above will be described in detail.
[0027]
12 to 18, 20, and 21 are flowcharts showing the operation of the female physical condition management device of the present invention, and FIG. 19 is a state transition diagram. First, the operation of the main program will be described with reference to FIG. In step S1, the person to be judged presses the power button 41a to turn on the female physical condition management device 10. In step S2, initialization processing is performed. Details of the initialization process will be described later. In step S3, a calendar for the current month is displayed on the display unit 42 as shown in FIG. At the top, various command icons are also displayed. The rectangular mark on the 24th means the current day.
[0028]
Next, when the ↑ button, the measurement button 41b, the selection button 41g, the physiological button 41e, the ← button, and the → button of the direction button 41j are pressed, control is performed in steps S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, and S9, respectively. move on.
[0029]
In step S4, it becomes a pregnancy possible period display mode, and the menstrual start scheduled date and the pregnancy possible date are displayed on a calendar. Details will be described later. In step S5, it becomes measurement mode, bioelectrical impedance etc. are measured and a result is displayed. Details will be described later. In step S6, the icon mode is set, and a command corresponding to the icon above the calendar is executed. Details will be described later.
[0030]
In step S7, the menstrual date is designated on the calendar. In step S8, the previous month calendar is displayed. In step S9, the next month calendar is displayed.
In step S10, the auto power off timer is counted up. The auto power off timer is reset when the power is turned on or by key operation. In step S11, it is determined whether a predetermined time has elapsed. If not, the process returns to step S10. In step S12, the power is turned off.
[0031]
Next, the initialization process (step S2) will be described in detail with reference to FIG. This initialization process is processed only when the power button is pressed for the first time or the reset button is pressed. The determination as to whether the power is turned on for the first time is performed by a generally used method. For example, a variable called an initialization flag is prepared, and this flag is set when initialization is performed. This flag is tested in the very first step of performing the initialization process. If it is set, the initialization process is not performed.
[0032]
In step S21, internal variables are initialized. In step S22, the date and time of the internal clock is set to the current date and time. In step S23, the latest menstrual date is input.
[0033]
Next, the process of the pregnancy possible period display mode (step S4) will be described in detail with reference to FIG. Explanation information such as an icon indicating this mode is not displayed. This is because the information displayed in this mode is highly secret. In step S31, as shown in FIG. 23 and FIG. 24, the scheduled pregnancy period and the scheduled start date for menstruation are displayed. In FIG. 23, ◎ indicates the date of ovulation. GOOD is displayed between ◎ to indicate the expected pregnancy period. Then, these scheduled pregnancy period marks and dates flash alternately. The rectangular mark on the 24th means the same day as in FIG. In FIG. 24, M indicates the scheduled start date of menstruation. Then, M and date blink alternately. When the scheduled pregnancy period and the menstrual start date extend over two months as in FIGS. 23 and 24, the → icon in the upper right corner of FIG. 23 blinks. → When the button is pressed, the next month (FIG. 24) can be viewed. In the next month, as shown in FIG. 24, the left arrow icon in the upper left corner blinks. In this example, the estimated fertility period is 5 days, the ovulation day and 2 days before and after the ovulation day, but there is also an idea that it is 9 days from the 11th day to the 19th day counting from the day before the next scheduled physiological start date. .
[0034]
In step S32, it is determined whether the cancel button 41h or the ↓ button has been pressed. If the button is pressed, the process returns to step S3, and the pregnancy possible period display mode is terminated. In step S33, the timer is counted up. In step S34, it is determined whether a predetermined time has elapsed. If not, the process returns to step S32. In step S35, the power is turned off.
[0035]
Next, the measurement process (step S5) will be described in detail with reference to FIG. In step S41, as shown in FIG. 25, the message “Please get on the impedance meter” blinks on the display unit 42. At the same time, the date and time are displayed at the top. If the cancel button 41h is pressed, the process proceeds to step S3.
[0036]
In step S42, within 30 seconds, the to-be-determined person brings the toes of the left sole and the right sole into contact with the constant current application electrodes 21a and 21b, respectively, and the heels of the left sole and the right sole with the voltage measuring electrodes 22a, When the body electrical impedance meter 20 with a weight scale is placed barefoot by making contact with 22b, the weight measuring device 25 detects the weight and starts measuring the body weight of the person to be determined. Subsequently, in step S43, a weak high-frequency constant current generated by the high-frequency constant current circuit 23 is applied to the toe of the person to be judged through the constant current application electrodes 21a and 21b, and the lower abdomen of the person to be judged. Shed between both feet. Then, the voltage between the voltage measuring electrodes 22a and 22b is measured by the voltage measuring circuit 24, and BI is measured. Until the determination result is displayed, the CPU 45 displays a sine curve-shaped monthly cycle diagram indicating that the measurement is being performed on the display unit 42 as shown in FIG. The □ and chick characters repeatedly move from left to right on the sine curve. The sine curve may be a circle or a straight line. The chick may be an animal. Alternatively, the measurement data stored in the storage device 44 may be streamed as a telop. These have the effect of not letting you feel the waiting time during measurement or getting tired. □ may be ○ or ●. The character of the chick may be a character whose color or shape changes according to the change of the date. In step S44, the BI measured in step S4 is corrected based on the weight correction equation 1 or 2 as described above. Thereby, the weight correction BI from which the influence of the weight change is removed is calculated.
[0037]
In step S45, based on the relationship between the above-described BI and the physical condition appearing in the woman's monthly cycle, the CPU 45 performs the current weight correction BI measured in step S44 and the previous stored in the storage device 24. The physical condition is determined as follows from the weight correction BI measured so far, the menstrual period data stored in the storage device 24, and the like. The date of the menstruation start date data designated in step S7 in FIG. One week from the start date of menstruation is the first period (menstrual period). A period from the next day to the previous day when a BI value 4% lower than the average BI value in the second week of the past monthly cycle is measured is defined as a second period (good period). The third period (maintenance period) is from the next day to one week before the next scheduled start date for menstruation estimated from past data. The period from the next day to the day when the next physiological start date data is input is defined as a fourth period (PMS period). As described above, the type A, B or C in FIG. 7 is determined to determine the onset of PMS symptoms. In the case of type A, the onset of PMS symptoms is predicted. The scheduled ovulation date is the 14th day retroactively from the next scheduled physiological date estimated from past data. Since the ovulation date is the last day of the favorable period, when the day after this day is reached, the above-mentioned scheduled pregnancy date is corrected.
[0038]
Since the past data is necessary for the above determination, at least the data of the past one month period is necessary. If there is no data, a message such as “data is insufficient” is displayed on the display unit 42.
[0039]
Next, a method for determining the “swell” level characteristic of the PMS period will be described. If a decrease of 1% or less occurs based on the past average BI value during this period, it is determined that the level is swelling. Below, the swelling level increases by one for every 1% decrease.
[0040]
In step S46, when the measurement and determination are completed normally, the determined physical condition is displayed. Details will be described later. In step S47, when the → button is pressed or a predetermined time elapses, a message “Press the record button and record data” is displayed on the display unit. When the record button 41c is pressed, values such as the weight correction BI and the weight measured this time are stored in the storage device 44. Return to the main program.
[0041]
Next, the physical condition display process (step S46) will be described in detail with reference to FIG. In step S141, as shown in FIG. 27, the symbol “◯” on the sine curve stops while blinking at the position of the day, and at the same time, information indicating the physical condition of the day, for example, the word “PMS” blinks. Thereafter, the blinking is canceled and the display is fixed. “M” in the lower left and lower right of the display screen means menstruation. In step S142, when the → button is pressed or a predetermined time elapses, a cycle message corresponding to the physical condition is displayed as shown in FIG. In this message, the swelling level, the mental state such as “Kimochi” and “skin condition” and the physical condition such as “body” are displayed in a bar graph. In the swelling level, one highlighted mark represents one swelling level. The levels of “Kimochi”, “Body”, “Skin condition”, and “Pheromone” in the “physiological period,“ good period ”, and“ maintenance period ”determined in step S45 are assigned by the number of days from the start of each period. . With regard to the “PMS period”, “Komochi” and “Body” levels are determined based on the “swelling level” determined from the BI change value described in step S45. If swelling is strong, edema in the brain will occur and the symptoms of irritation will be strong, so the level of “Kimochi” will be low. Also, if the swelling is strong, the feeling of fatigue increases, so the “body” level is low. The "pheromone" level is determined to be 100% when a woman is most feminine ovulated. In this embodiment, the graph is a bar graph, but it may be a circle graph, a line graph, or a radar chart. Furthermore, you may display in three dimensions. In step S143, when the → button is pressed or a predetermined time elapses, advice corresponding to the physical condition is displayed as shown in FIG. In step S144, when it is determined that there is a possibility of pregnancy when the → button is pressed or a predetermined time elapses, a message indicating the possibility of pregnancy shown in FIG. In step S145, when the → button is pressed or a predetermined time has passed, the body weight and body fat percentage are displayed together with ↑ or ↓ indicating the increase or decrease as shown in FIG. In step S146, when the → button is pressed or a predetermined time elapses, as shown in FIG. 32, the average value of the menstrual cycle days in the past six months, the average weight, the start date and the end date of the past menstrual cycle The number of days in the menstrual cycle and the average weight within that cycle are displayed.
[0042]
Next, the icon mode process (step S6) will be described in detail with reference to FIG. When the body cycle display icon of the command icon displayed in the upper part of FIG. 22 is selected by the selection button 41g and the determination button 41f is pressed, the process proceeds to step S51 to perform body cycle display processing. When the graph display icon is selected by the selection button 41g and the determination button 41f is pressed, the process proceeds to step S52 to perform graph display.

Subsequently, when the cancel button is pressed, the process returns to step S3. → When the button is pressed or a predetermined time elapses, tomorrow's advice message is displayed in step S65 as shown in FIG. When the cancel button is pressed, the process returns to step S3. When it is determined that there is a possibility of pregnancy, when the arrow button is pressed or a predetermined time elapses, in step S66, the possibility of pregnancy message (FIG. 30) is displayed as described in step S144. .
[0044]
Next, the graph display process (step S52) will be described using the state transition diagram of FIG. In the state ST71, as shown in FIG. 34, a graph of the change in the weight of the current month and an average value are displayed. When the ← button is pressed, the state transitions to the state ST72, and a graph and an average value of the change in the weight of the previous month are displayed. When the → button is pressed in this state, the state transitions to state ST71. The other states make similar transitions. In the state ST73, the graph and the average value of the change in the weight of the next month are displayed. In the state ST74, as shown in FIG. 35, a graph and an average value of the change in the body fat percentage for the current month are displayed. In state ST75, the body fat percentage of the previous month is displayed. In the state ST76, a graph and an average value of changes in the body fat percentage of the next month are displayed. In the state ST77, as shown in FIG. 36, the graph and average value of the change in the BI value for the current month are displayed. In the state ST78, a graph and an average value of the change in the BI value of the previous month are displayed. In the state ST79, the graph and average value of the change in the BI value of the next month are displayed. → The power is turned off when a predetermined time elapses without the button or the ← button being pressed.
[0045]
Next, diary entry / browsing processing (step S53) will be described with reference to FIG. In step S81, the date and diary of the day are displayed on the display unit 42 as shown in FIG. In step S82, the person to be judged answers the displayed item with YES / NO. If YES is selected, it is determined by pressing the ↑ button and pressing the enter button 41f. When selecting NO, the user presses the ↓ button and decides by pressing the enter button 41f. You can fill in the past diary with the ← button. When the cancel button is pressed, the process returns to step S3. In step S83, a screen for requesting confirmation is displayed as shown in FIG. The person to be judged selects YES or NO with the ↑ button or the ↓ button, and decides with the decision button 41f. If NO is selected and determined, the process returns to step S81. In step S84, the diary for the current day is displayed as shown in FIG. When the ← button is pressed, a past diary can be displayed as shown in FIG. → You can return by pressing the button.
[0046]
Next, the inquiry process (step S54) will be described with reference to FIG. In step S91, an item selection screen is displayed together with a message “What do you want to know?” As shown in FIG. In step S92, the person to be determined uses the ↓ button or the ↑ button to perform scroll selection and presses the decision button 41f to decide. Items include “date date”, “day of irregular bleeding”, “date of menstruation”, “scheduled start date of next menstruation”, “date of ovulation and scheduled date of pregnancy”, “date of next PMS” And “day suitable for diet”. Explain how to determine the “day suitable for diet (period)”. The period starts three days before the scheduled date of ovulation. The menstrual cycle of the person to be judged is assumed to be 28 days. It is assumed that it starts from the third day before the 14th day (scheduled ovulation day) from the day when the menstruation button is pressed. This number of days naturally depends on the average period of the person being judged. Body temperature hasn't risen yet, but before the date of ovulation, it becomes swelled and thins naturally. At this time, it is said that if you take care of your diet and exercise, you will have a dietary effect. Next, the end of the period will be described. The end is the fourth day of the low value period when BI falls and the BI low value period starts. In other words, the fourth day after the body temperature rises is determined as the “period suitable for diet”. The reason is that in the high temperature period, the body temperature is high, so the energy consumption is high. In step S93, as shown in FIG. 42, a calendar for the month including the day corresponding to the item specified in step S92 is displayed, and the corresponding day blinks. In this embodiment, the corresponding day is displayed on the calendar. However, the date may be simply displayed as characters. → When the button is pressed or a predetermined time elapses, the process returns to step S91. When the cancel button 41h is pressed, the process returns to step S3.
[0047]
Next, still another embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 11: is a perspective view which shows the external structure of the 2nd Example of the physical condition management apparatus for women which concerns on this invention.
