You can access the Cycle Insights from the Today view, by scrolling all the way down to “See cycle insights”.
What can I see under Cycle Insights?
Cycle summary
At the top of the page, you can see how many cycles you have logged in total, and you can also view a summary of each individual cycle. Your most recent cycle will be shown by default, and you can go back and forth by clicking on the arrows.
Green days
You will also be able to see your percentage of green and red days for the previous cycle.
Compare my cycles on the graph
If you want to compare how your cycles have evolved through time, you can click on “Compare my cycles on the graph”, which will take you to the Compare Graph feature. There, you’ll be able to visually grasp the differences in your cycle lengths, temperatures, and detected ovulations.
My added data
By clicking into this section, you’ll be able to see more detailed information about the data that you have added. You can see your current and longest measuring streak, how many days you have measured in the current cycle, how many LH tests you have added, how many days you have logged Period (if you’re on NC° Birth Control), number of pregnancy tests (NC° Plan Pregnancy), and how many times you have logged sex.
In this section you can also view your achievements.
Cycle length and variation
In this section, you can view your average cycle length and how much it varies from cycle to cycle, as well as if the algorithm considers your cycle to be regular or irregular.
You can also see how long your shortest and longest cycle was out of the six most recent cycles. If you click on the blue text (“shortest” and “longest”), you can see the length of your shortest and longest cycle ever logged while using the app.
Follicular phase
In this section, you can see your average follicular phase length and how much it varies.
You can also see your average temperature for the follicular phase and how much it varies, as well as if your temperature variation is low or high. There are several levels of temperature variation, ranging from Excellent to Very unstable. The lower temperature variation you have within each cycle phase, the easier it is for the algorithm to detect ovulation.
If your temperatures fluctuate (vary) a lot, you can read more in this article to get some tips for how to reduce your fluctuations.
Ovulation
In the Ovulation section, you’ll find all the statistics related to your ovulation, such as your average ovulation day and how much it varies.
You can see your earliest and latest ovulation in the last six cycles, and if you click on the blue text (“earliest” or “latest”) you can see your earliest and latest ovulation logged while using the app.
You will also see how many cycles you logged Spotting near your ovulation.
Lastly, the number of confirmed and unconfirmed ovulations will be visible in this section, and you can also see how many of your cycles have been anovulatory.
Luteal phase
In this section, you’ll find your average luteal phase length and how much it varies. The luteal phase is generally quite consistent in length, which means that it usually doesn’t vary that much from cycle to cycle. However, the average luteal phase length will be different for each person.
In this section, you can also see your average luteal phase temperature and your temperature variation for this phase, as well as if your temperatures are stable or not. As in the follicular phase, the variation can range from Excellent to Very unstable, and the lower your temperature variation, the easier it is for the algorithm to detect your ovulation.
If your temperatures fluctuate (vary) a lot, you can read more in this article to get some tips for how to reduce your fluctuations.
Period
In this section, you can see how long your period is on average, which is the basis of your period length predictions. If you log your period flow, you will also see here on which days you usually experience different flows.
