Problem
Many women seek hormone-free alternatives for birth control or pregnancy planning due to concerns about side effects or personal preferences. Traditional methods may lack personalization, leading to inaccuracies in fertility awareness and potentially impacting effectiveness.

The algorithm uses daily temperature readings, input via a thermometer or synced wearable device, to identify fertile and non-fertile days. The app provides users with a daily fertility status, cycle tracking, and educational content, empowering them to make informed decisions about family planning. Natural Cycles is an FDA-cleared Class II medical device that offers a hormone-free alternative to traditional birth control methods.
