Natural Cycles is the first NFP app to be reimbursable by health insurance. It tracks a woman's basal body temperature (BBT) and lets her use a morning BBT thermometer or wear the Oura Ring to bed to track average BBT throughout sleep. Recorded temperature automatically syncs to the app and informs women of fertile vs. non-fertile days.
Use promo code NFPP for 15% OFF an annual plan.
Tempdrop tracks basal body temperature (BBT) with a wearable armband sensor worn while asleep. Nightly recorded BBT automatically syncs to the app and informs a woman of fertile and non-fertile days.
Use code NFPP for 10% OFF Tempdrop.
With the Mira Hormone Monitor Kit, women can track 4 separate hormones (estradiol, LH, FSH, and progesterone metabolite [PdG]) to predict and confirm ovulation, track their 6-day fertile window, and see daily quantitative hormone levels. Hormone levels are obtained by dipping a testing strip into urine; results are charted and automatically sync to the Mira app.
Use promo code NFPPHYSICIAN for 15% OFF starter kits or up to 25% OFF urine test wand refills.
Inito Fertility uses the sympto-hormonal method of NFP. It uses urine testing wands to chart daily levels of 4 important hormones (estradiol, LH, FSH, and progesterone metabolite [PdG]). Hormone levels are placed on a graph and automatically sync to the Inito app.
Use code NFPPHYSICIAN.
