If you're wanting to better understand your menstrual cycle, Natural Cycles is a fantastic tool for turning your daily cycle data into useful insights.
Rather than simply tracking when your period arrives, the app uses basal body temperature (BBT) alongside cycle information to help identify your fertile window and understand your individual cycle patterns.
✨ Why I love it:
* Helps you become more aware of your unique menstrual cycle
* Tracks cycle patterns over time
* Can help identify your fertile window
* Encourages you to understand the hormonal changes occurring throughout your cycle
* Provides valuable information you can bring to your healthcare practitioner
* Can be used for contraception or conception, depending on your goals
As a naturopath and nutritionist, I particularly love cycle tracking because your menstrual cycle can provide valuable clues about your overall health and wellbeing. Changes in cycle length, bleeding, cervical mucus, temperature patterns and PMS symptoms can all be useful pieces of the puzzle.
📱 My tip: Don't just use an app to tell you when your period is coming — use it as a tool to learn about your body.
