Zykluskalender PERIMON

Was ist PERIMON?

PERIMON ist ein Zykluskalender, mit welchem Sie Einblick in Ihren Zyklus bekommen. PERIMON ist Verhtungs- und Empfngnishilfe fr Frauen von 18 bis 45 Jahren. Die Software ist einfach zu bedienen und leistet bereits seit 1996 zuverlssig ihren Dienst. Sie geben nur einmal im Monat Ihre Menstruation ein (und prfen bei Bedarf Ihre Schleimqualitt)

Was unterscheidet PERIMON von anderen Periodenkalender?

Um die Voraussagen so genau wie mglich zu halten, berechnet PERIMON im Gegensatz zu den meisten anderen Produkten Ihre tatschliche Zykluslnge und den dazu passenden Eisprungtermin. Darber hinaus wurde PERIMON mit Schwerpunkt auf Sicherheit konstruiert. Whrend viele andere Kalender nur statistische Werte anzeigen oder standardmig zu viele Tage als unfruchtbar markieren, beruhen die Fruchtbarkeitsangaben von PERIMON auf der Analyse Ihres individuellen Zyklus' und beinhalten zustzlich eine groe Sicherheitsreserve fr Zyklusschwankungen

Ist Empfngnisverhtung mit PERIMON sicher?

Sie frgen besser Ist PERIMON sicher genug fr meine Bedrfnisse, denn Verhtung kann stets missglcken. PERIMON agiert sehr vorsichtig: Wenn Sie PERIMON nur mit der Zeitwahlmethode verwenden, schtzen wir den Pearl-Index gem den uns vorliegenden Daten auf ca. 4,0 oder besser (eine gute Sicherheit). Beobachten Sie zustzlich in den kritischen Tagen noch Schleim oder Muttermund, was einfach durchzufhren ist, erhht sich die Sicherheit auf bis zu 1,0 (Details)

Was ist der Nachteil von PERIMON?

PERIMON bestimmt pro Zyklus maximal 10,5 unfruchtbare Tage und bentigt ca. 3-8 Zyklen, bevor es mit Voraussagen beginnt. Dies sind die Grenzen der Rhythmusmethode, die sich erweitern lassen, indem Sie bei Bedarf andere Methoden, wie z.B. die Schleimbeobachtung, hinzuziehen

Sie knnen dieses Programm kostenlos verwenden, solange Sie es nicht verndern. (Es ist kostenlos, weil die Benutzeroberflche nicht mehr zeitgem ist und ohne Maus bedient wird. Ich biete es Ihnen an, weil es davon abgesehen wunderbar seinen Dienst tut.) Es ist ein reines DOS-Programm (luft auf DOS / Win3.x / Win 95 / Win 98 / Win2000 / Win XP), sehr klein und schlicht im Erscheinungsbild, aber mit einer ausgefeilten Rechenroutine.Mein Tipp: Speichern Sie es auf Diskette und starten es auch von dort. Dann werden Ihre Periodendaten automatisch auf derselben Diskette gesichert.

Beiprogramm "Zykli"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Zykli" zeigt alle auf Diskette (bzw. Festplatte) gespeicherten Perioden an. Das knnen bis zu 14 sein und entspricht damit im allgemeinen dem Zeitraum von 1,1 Jahren. Es dient lediglich der Informationsbefriedigung, da die letzten 8 Perioden sowieso in "Perimon" angezeigt werden.

Cycle calendar PERIMON

What is PERIMON?

PERIMON is a cycle calendar which gives you insight into your cycle. PERIMON is a contraception and conceiving aid for women from 18 to 45 years of age. It is easy to use and reliably renders its service since 1996. You simply enter your menstruation date once a month (and check your cervical mucus if required)

What is the difference between PERIMON and other menstrual calendars?

To optimise its forecasts PERIMON calculates  in contrast to many other products  your actual cycle length and ovulation date. Furthermore PERIMON was designed with the focal point on safety. Whereas many other calendars only display statistical fertility values or designate too many days as infertile by default, PERIMON's fertility analysis is based upon the data of your individual cycle and includes a wide safety reserve for cycle irregularities

Is birth control with PERIMON safe?

You'd better ask Is PERIMON safe enough for my needs, because contraception can always fail. PERIMON operates very cautious: If you use PERIMON only with the rhythm method, we estimate the Pearl index by help of the available data to 4.0 or better (a good safety). If you additionally examine your mucus or cervix on the days in question  which is easy to do  safety will increase up to 1.0 (details). Whenever there is a case of doubt PERIMON goes for safety

What is the disadvantage of PERIMON?

PERIMON only designates at most 10.5 days per cycle as infertile and needs ca. 3-8 cycles before it starts with prediction. These are the limitations of the rhythm method that can be extended by calling in other methods whenever required, e.g. the cervical mucus observation

You may use this program free of charge as long as you do not change it. (It is free because of the user surface that is no longer up-to-date.) Perimon is a very small program, that comes with a simple appearance (a pure DOS program), but has a sophisticated computing routine. My hint: Store it on disk and start it from there. Then your cycle data become automatically secured on the same diskette. (It runs likewise on fixed disk.)

Herstellerangaben / manufacturer data:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Trotz sorgfltigster Programmierung ist durch ein Zyklusprogramm (hier: PERIMON) kein 100%iger Schutz vor Schwangerschaften (und natrlich nicht vor bertragbaren Krankheiten) mglich. Seien Sie achtsam mit sich. Es ist mglich, dass Perimon Ihre unfruchtbaren Tage falsch erkennt. Wir empfehlen: Bestimmen Sie zustzlich Ihren Eisprung zur Erhhung der Verhtungssicherheit (weitere Infos auf unserer Internetprsenz). Jegliche Haftung ist ausgeschlossen.

WENN SIE AUSSERHALB DEUTSCHLAND WOHNEN, IST ES VERBOTEN, DIESE SOFTWARE ZUR EMPFNGNISVERHTUNG ZU NUTZEN. Bitte nutzen Sie Perimon in diesem Fall nur zum Erlangen einer Schwangerschaft oder um Ihren Zyklus genauer kennenzulernen.

*****

Defiance of the most careful programming, cycle calender programs (here: PERIMON) cannot give 100% protection from pregnancy (and of course not against diseases). Be careful with yourself. It is possible that Perimon incorrectly determines your infertile days. We recommend to additionally determine the ovulation (more information about this you find on our web site). Any liability is excluded.

IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE GERMANY OR DO NOT SPEAK GERMAN YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO USE THIS SOFTWARE AS A CONTRACEPTIVE TOOL. Please only use it to achieve pregnancy or to get to know you cycle.

1. Definitions

   1. "Collective Work" means a work, such as a periodical issue, anthology or encyclopedia, in which the Work in its entirety in unmodified form, along with a number of other contributions, constituting separate and independent works in themselves, are assembled into a collective whole. A work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work (as defined below) for the purposes of this License.
   2. "Derivative Work" means a work based upon the Work or upon the Work and other pre-existing works, such as a translation, musical arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any other form in which the Work may be recast, transformed, or adapted, except that a work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical composition or sound recording, the synchronization of the Work in timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of this License.
   3. "Licensor" means the individual or entity that offers the Work under the terms of this License.
   4. "Original Author" means the individual or entity who created the Work.
   5. "Work" means the copyrightable work of authorship offered under the terms of this License.

If You create a Collective Work, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Collective Work any credit as required by clause 4(c), as requested.
   2. You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section 3 above in any manner that is primarily intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SUCH EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

6. Limitation on Liability.
