there's no useful medical information to be had that way

Nope not really. Since the most precise medical info that's really needed is "are you actually bleeding" and "does it feel like tiny elves are mining your uterus with tiny pickaxes", I don't see what it gains you.

Um, no thanks for that mental image!

Volume and colour of menstrual fluid is pretty irrelevant. It might be nice to get a notification when it needed changing, but I usually change mine on the regular anyway. Also, there's a difference between stated and functional capacity with menstrual cups, which differs depending on cervical position and so on. I'm just not sure what adding Bluetooth gains you here. It's not like you can control a video game with it, like a toaster.

I did say "awesome", not "useful".

I find "smart" things fascinating. Both in and of themselves and for the inevitable security holes later.

Yes, I was responding to the actual claims made in the kickstarter :)

Cool! I've been thinking of trying a regular cup, but this seems excessive. Still, it's neat. Although I'd find it more useful if it could sense when my body actually decides to have a period, as opposed to any kind of schedule (there isn't one).

But I'm trying (and failing) not to think of what happens if you forget to take it out at the airport and the alarm goes off.

It needs pressure sensors so the user can control it using their pelvic floor muscles.

I find it weird that the girl in the video was alone for the ENTIRE DURATION of her period. If that were true to life, I'd have zero problems with my period.
