Fertility Awareness Project

Why is Nat using Natural Cycles? It’s all part of a grand experiment. In this episode, Nat compares her symptothermal and Billings chart to the Natural Cycles algorithm. How effective is Natural Cycles, and how does it compare to a FABM? We also talk about:

  • The fallacy that tech is smarter than us
  • Long cycles and predicted ovulation in period tracking apps
  • The psychology behind the seamless “FDA approved” design
  • Red days and calculation rules in long cycles
  • Outsourcing our sense of security to tech
  • And replacing the feeling of safety on the pill with an app
