How Primrose & Eve tracks crawling skin sensation
Primrose & Eve lets you log crawling skin sensation 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.

What is crawling skin sensation in perimenopause?
A creeping feeling on or just beneath the skin, sometimes with tingling or itch. Sits within the broader pattern of skin-sensitivity shifts during perimenopause.
Is crawling skin sensation a recognized perimenopause symptom?
Yes. Crawling skin sensation is one of 34 named symptoms in the perimenopause transition. It is documented by Mayo Clinic. It is one of the less-visible symptoms — real and common, but easy to miss or dismiss in a short appointment.
How can I track crawling skin sensation during perimenopause?
Primrose & Eve is designed for exactly this. Log crawling skin sensation in two taps each day, and after a few weeks the app identifies patterns: whether certain triggers make it worse, whether it clusters at a particular time of day, and how it is trending over time. Everything goes into a GP Report — a clinical briefing you can share with your doctor.
