Electric shock sensations and perimenopause.
A brief, sharp jolt under the skin, like a tiny static shock. Mostly anecdotal in the literature, and often appears in the moments before or during a hot flash.
How Primrose & Eve tracks electric shock sensations
Primrose & Eve lets you log electric shock sensations in two taps, with a five-point severity scale and optional trigger tags — stress, caffeine, alcohol, poor sleep, exercise, heat, food. After three weeks of logging, the app's pattern engine identifies what is making your symptoms better or worse, using the same statistical tests epidemiologists use. Those findings go into a clinical briefing your doctor can read and act on in the time you actually have with them.
