APPLICATIONS TO CONTROL OVULATION AND KNOW THE FERTILE DAYS

The best way to know the fertile days to get pregnant is to keep track of the menstrual cycle and certain physical changes that occur throughout the cycle. There is applications for mobile devices that help keep track of ovulation and fertility.

They have in common that they need us to enter the data of our cycle for at least three months (the longer this period, the more reliable the results) so that they can make the "calculation" of when the next period will be and what the fertile days will be .

All applications that help control ovulation and know the fertile days to get pregnant and we list below are free and offer basically the same services. Let's see them.

By including data such as body temperature as well as cervical mucus to calculate periods of fertility can be considered somewhat more reliable than other simpler ones.

Indicates days of fertility, ovulation, and current and future periods, moods (can you predict?) And displays the information in a monthly calendar.

Are these applications really useful for controlling ovulation?

Fertility applications of this type clarify that the results they show are theoretical and based on the data entered by each user, so they are subject to error.

It is important to note that some of these applications emphasize that they should not be used as contraceptive methods and this is due to that margin of error that could be wide (the worse they are used, the less data is entered ...).

For women with an irregular cycle, this ovulation control will not be very useful, since by definition the regularity needed to establish fertility schedules is not met. In addition, we have to take into account factors that even women with a regular cycle could cause changes in the period.

We remind you some points to consider for know what our fertile days are and even to develop our own fertility calendar:
