Common questions

Natural Cycles is an FDA Cleared app that has helped millions of women support their fertility journey. From preventing to planning, following pregnancy, and recovering from birth — the NC° app provides content tailored for you every step of the way.

The app is powered by an algorithm that analyzes hormone-driven changes in your body temperature to let you know when you’re fertile or not.

Your NC° subscription covers each of the different modes, and it is not affected if you switch between modes. It is important that you always use the mode that best suits you, as the experience in the app is tailored to give you detailed messages and information based on the mode you are using.

NC° Birth Control Prevent pregnancy naturally, without synthetic hormones and side effects.
NC° Plan Pregnancy Find your fertile window and get pregnant faster.
NC° Follow pregnancy Track your body’s changes and baby’s development.
NC° Postpartum Support your health and well-being after childbirth.

NC° Postpartum guides you through the physical and mental recovery of childbirth, providing resources tailored to help support your overall health and well-being during this crucial transitional phase.
While taking your temperature is not required in the postpartum mode, measuring is encouraged as it helps our algorithm detect when your fertility returns so you can feel prepared and in control.

You may ovulate before you get your period back, and this makes it hard to know when you will be fertile after giving birth. For this reason, NC° Postpartum will give you only Red Days until your first ovulation has been confirmed.

Measuring your temperature isn’t necessary while using NC° Postpartum, but it will let us know when your ovulation returns so you can start seeing Green Days in your fertility status. 

Of course, if you measure with an Oura Ring or Apple Watch, we’d encourage you to keep at it! Since wearables track temperature data in your sleep, they can help detect changes without extra effort.

Caring for a newborn brings its own challenges. If you’re measuring manually with a thermometer, the last thing you may want to do is add another variable to the mix. Still, even if you have an irregular sleep schedule, you can use Natural Cycles. Take your time — once you’re feeling up to it and your period is back, you can introduce measuring into your routine. 

Yes! In fact, it’s one of the smoothest ways for new mothers to measure. Wearable devices, like an Oura Ring or Apple Watch, let you seamlessly measure temperature trends in your sleep and sync with the NC° app in the morning.

Life with a newborn can mean less sleep, new routines, and unpredictable challenges. Tracking with a wearable helps give you one less worry. So, when you’re feeling ready to track your fertility, we highly recommend using wearables. Whatever device you choose, the effectiveness of Natural Cycles remains the same.
