Add basal body temperature to Menstrual Health Tracking

[ExLpn]

The calendar method is not accurate for anyone with a cycle other than 28 days or variable cycles (which is the majority of the population). Basal body temperature is a reliable method for determining fertility. Please add an option to add daily temperatures AND include this in the algorithm. Thank you.

Hi @R.Cam, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback about adding a feature to track basal body temperature with us, this feature suggestion already exists so I’ve moved your post here as it is not currently planned.

For all of us women whom are trying to conceive. We would love to be able to atleast LOG our basal body temperature. Even if you do not let the device track the temperature specifically. It would be appreciated if an algorithm can be created to enable BBT to be logged (from a previously utilized tracking device)therefore helping to make ovulation predictions more accurate.

I understand that having the device actually track BBT is a huge under-taking but just adjusting the app and allowing for the DATA to be input and used within would be very helpful for trying to conceive.

Have any ladies had a miscarriage and would like to see more helpful features like BBT for tracking???

It would be really great to have the option of a basal temperature input option as often this can be an indicator of the upcoming period for some or most women.

It would make a HUGE difference for Women's health and education if Fitbit could track the Basal body temperature like the AVA watch. There is a huge lack of education on women's fertility, and this feature would help many women understand and track their fertility.

The skin temperature data from the sense (and any other apps that use it), could be linked into the predicted fertile window of the menstrual tracker so that it provides a more accurate fertile window rather than counting back 14 days from the predicted next period.
