Mobile phone apps that track menstrual cycles are the family planning method of choice for these women. HOW IT WORKSThe Cycle Beads app helps a woman use the standard days method, a fertility awareness-based family planning method. For women with cycles in this range, the method identifies days 8 to 19 as potentially fertile days. To prevent pregnancy during this period, users are advised to avoid unprotected sex by using a condom or abstaining. The app helps women to track their cycles, prevent pregnancy by avoiding sex when pregnancy is possible and to plan pregnancy by having sex only when pregnancy is possible.
