Fertility Chart iPhone Apps

Woman Calendar

Price: $9.99

Woman Calendar helps if you're trying to conceive or to avoid pregnancy. This iPhone app predicts fertility cycles based on the Fertility Awareness Method (FAM), so you should understand FAM in order to take advantage of all its features. This app allows you to:

• Keep a log of biological data such as menstrual periods, basal body temperature, ovulation, weight, and sexual activities. You can design and track your very own data according to your cycle lengths.
• Plot your daily BBT over a menstrual cycle or over a month. BBT chart view shows your BBT chart with cervical fluid and ovulation day over a menstrual cycle.
• Export data via email or print a hard copy for your next healthcare provider’s appointment.
• The calendar shows which day you are in your cycle.

myNFP

Price: $5.99

The myNFP iPhone app is based on the symptothermal natural family planning method. To effectively use fertility awareness methods for contraception, it is essential that you fully understand how to use these methods. With the myNFP app, you input data about your menstrual cycle, and the app helps to determine your most fertile and infertile days. This app is actually based on the results of a research study which revealed that the symptothermal method of NFP is most unforgiving if not properly followed. This iPhone fertility app also:

• Allows you the choice to set the app to be used for contraception or to help you conceive. 
• Input data about your body temperature and time of measurement.
• Allows for detailed information about cervical mucus (i.e., how it feels to what it looks like), cervix (position and softness), and menstruation (spotting, normal, strong, etc.). 
• Forecasts the beginning of your next menstrual cycle. 
• Data can be entered for future days (a feature not included in some other charting apps).
• Offers a place to note daily if you had protected or unprotected intercourse, medication use, quality of sleep, alcohol use, illnesses, use of a different thermometer, stress, and other environmental interferences.
• Easy to read cycle charts.
• Ensures privacy via a lock-screen (so others can’t access app).
• You can import/export information about your cycles to and from the online platform of myNFP; send cycle charts as PDFs to your email to store or print.
• Includes an in-depth manual for use.

The manufacturer of the myNFP App notes that this iPhone app:

• Supports both Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales, but it is optimized for use with the Celsius scale.
• Temperature values are rounded to the next 0.05°C step, which results in 0.09°F roundings in Fahrenheit.

MeFertil

Price: $4.99

This iPhone app is for women who use natural family planning as their contraceptive method, and for those trying to get pregnant. MeFertil provides easy fertility monitoring. This app features:

• No more paper charting: keep track of your medications, cervical mucus, BBT and timing of intercourse in one place (and have it handy during healthcare providers' visits).
• Analyzes all data and displays an easy to read color-coded BBT chart showing your fertile period.
• The red line marks your period days; yellow line indicates days when you’re unlikely to be fertile, and pink line shows your fertile time with peak day emphasized in bright pink.
• A coverline appears after ovulation. If BBT remains higher than this line, it may be time to buy a home pregnancy test.

iOvulation

Price: $.99

iOvulation calculates ovulation date and generates a personal fertility calendar. Knowing when you ovulate can help you pick the best days to naturally avoid pregnancy (since you’re most fertile the day of ovulation and the day before). This app lets you:

iOvulation calculates your fertile days, taking into account possible variations in your menstrual cycle, to help assist you in natural contraception.
