What is PCOS?
PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) is a common cycle condition. It’s thought to be caused by an imbalance of hormones and often leads to anovulatory cycles. For more information on what PCOS is, its symptoms, and advice on how to get a diagnosis, head over to our blog post on the subject.
For those who have PCOS, Natural Cycles can help visualize and track your cycles. It can identify whether or not you have ovulated, and how long your cycles are - useful information to take to your doctor or fertility clinic when discussing the condition. It is important to know that while irregular cycles as a result of PCOS do not affect the effectiveness of Natural Cycles as a birth control method, you may experience an increased number of red days as the app allows for your ovulation day to shift from cycle to cycle.
