My phone knows my age and sex. It knows I’m male.

Why can’t I hide or remove the menstrual cycle tracking from Health? Quite obviously, it’s irrelevant.

I actually thought it was for cycling as in bicycles the first time I saw it.

Presumably there is a gender out there that can be male and physically or otherwise menstruate or have a menstrual cycle of sorts. I can't keep up with the times. Is there an option to be a cat or some other things? (not sure if non human diversity is a thing nowadays or not. sorry i didn't mean to be offensive I'm just curious)

The greatest thing about being a human with free will is you have the agency to ignore something that is of no interest to you.

In options uncheck it, don’t see it, it’s gone, all good.

Exactly this. Trans men still can have menstruation cycles.
