3.7

3 reviews

Natural Cycles App has an average rating of 3.7 out of 5 stars from a total of 3 reviews when used as a contraceptive. These are self-reported reviews where users of Natural Cycles App review their satisfaction with this contraceptive and any side effects they feel they experienced whilst using.
The Natural Cycles app is a mobile application classified in the EU and by the FDA as a medical device for birth control. Technically it is a fertility awareness method. The app contains an algorithm that analyses your temperature (which you measure using a thermometer) and menstrual cycle data to calculate when you are fertile. It tells you to avoid sex or use other protection like condoms on your fertile days. Unlike other fertility awareness methods it tries to minimise human error as the algorithm does the calculations and interpretations for you.

Overall, I felt that this was a safer option. I only switched to the mini pill in an effort to get a handle on my PCOS pelvic pain.

I was previously on the contraceptive pill, and as soon as i came off it i was immediately more in tune with my body, could feel the sex drive boost around ovulation etc and lost the weight the pill had put on me.

I feel like I've gotten to know my body! I really like the partner view so my husband knows when I'm fertile and won't try to initiate sex. After a terrible experience with hormonal birth control, this makes me feel in control and it has taught me so much!

How does the Natural Cycles App work?

The Natural Cycles app is a mobile application classified in the EU and FDA-cleared as a medical device for birth control. It's a new form of 'digital birth control' that stems from the symptothermal method. You record your temperature daily and log it into the app using either a basal thermometer (that you can get from Natural Cycles),or insights from an Oura Ring smart ring which records health insights like your temperature heart rate and sleep quality.
