Used Natural cycles for 3 months and fell pregnant on what should have been a green or safe day to have intercourse. Worst contraceptive method ever! Please don't consider it a safe method. It might be good if you're trying to conceive but that's about it!

Good not to have fake hormones in body - felt so much better and more horny than on pill. In the end, got pregnant after 1 year of using it to stop pregnancy. Not sure if it was because my routine can change a bit everyday - like getting up later. Baby wasn’t a disaster for us but wouldn’t use Nat cycles if not getting pregnant was most important thing

Can’t recommend this app in good conscience because I fell pregnant using it very quickly. I hardly had any green days so this was very surprising. It is NOT a contraceptive, please don’t use if pregnancy would be disastrous.
