Plait goes deep on six chapters of women's health: pregnancy, breastfeeding, perimenopause, menopause, PCOS and endometriosis. Tell it what's going on and the plan is built around it, instead of around an average of everyone else.
The six Plait goes deep on
Not a long list of tags that all lead to the same template. For each of the six, here is what the plan actually does: the targets it sets, the questions it asks, and how meals get chosen.
For the stage where the old rules stopped working. The plan starts from the body you have now.
Menopause, postmenopause and surgical menopause are different starting points, so the plan asks which one is yours.
Targets built around your trimester, not a one-size 'eating for two'.
Expecting twins? The plan adds 300 kcal a day.
Gestational diabetes come up? It holds a carb floor of 175 g a day instead of cutting carbs.
Feeding a baby is a real demand on your body. The plan counts it.
Periods returned? Your iron target moves from 9 to 18 mg.
PCOS is not one body. The plan refuses to guess about yours.
Had your glucose checked? If it came back fine, your carbs stay at the general split. Until the plan knows, it keeps the steadier lower-carb split rather than guessing.
Most nutrition apps have never heard of it. Plait builds the plan around it.
Built on The Menopause Society, ADA and NHLBI guidance.
Questions generic apps never ask
You saw some of these on the cards above. Two more, because the honest answer should change the plan, and in Plait it does, the moment you give it.
Losing weight without trying to?
The plan switches to maintenance and will not run a deficit.
Appetite gone?
Meal scoring flips to favour small, protein-dense meals over three big plates.
Per-symptom tracking
Plait tracks 25 symptoms, hot flashes to brain fog to bloating. Each one you choose becomes its own tracked marker with its own chart, sitting beside your food log and the 27 health markers you can already track. Not a note lost in a diary. A line you can actually watch.
Six on offer. 45 conditions in the knowledge base behind them.
Onboarding offers exactly six on purpose: they are the ones the plan is built to go deep on. The wider knowledge base is the depth they draw on, and it is why Plait knows the difference between a plan for PCOS, a plan for perimenopause, and a plan that respects both at once.
