Abstract

Disclosed is a female physical condition managing apparatus comprising: a bioelectrical impedance-meter for determining BI values; a memory for storing the so determined BI values; a decision-making unit for making a decision about the monthly physical condition of a woman on the basis of the time series analysis of the variation of the BI values; and a display showing the so made decision on the monthly physical condition of the woman and a BI transition symbolic curve. This permits women to realize quickly what stage has been reached in the monthly physical condition. Presentation of measurement in the display is so dynamic that the viewer may not feel bored while the measurement is being made.
