Logging currently means tapping a button on a debug surface and then nudging the date with −1d. PRODUCT_PLAN.md §23 wants one or two taps and no survey.

Started Period → Yes — Today or Choose Another Date → "Logged ✓ Your predictions have been updated" → straight back to Today. §23: do not force symptoms, mood, notes, or a survey.

Period end (§24): Ended Today, Choose Date, Still Going. Duration is stored only when it is actually known — never inferred.

Spotting (§25): recordable, and it must not reset the cycle. If an extremely short period entry is recorded the app may gently ask once whether it was a period or spotting — once, because §25 also says not to over-question.

The repository already refuses a duplicate date with AlreadyRecorded rather than throwing; this screen turns that into a sentence a person can read rather than an error.

Verify: logging a period from Today takes two taps and returns to Today; a date picker path exists for a period that started earlier; ending a period offers Still Going and never invents a date; and a two-day entry produces the spotting question exactly once.
