Description

I’ve been using Natural Cycles – Birth Control for a couple months now. It’s basically a birth control app that tracks your cycle and tells you when you’re fertile. Pretty solid option if you’re looking to ditch the hormones and pills.

Here’s how it works: the NC° app uses your body temperature to figure out when you’re ovulating. There’s also a calendar that shows your fertile days – so you know exactly when you can and can’t get pregnant. It even adapts to your cycle, even if it’s a little irregular.

Look, if you’re sick of dealing with side effects from birth control, you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – the temperature tracking can be a pain sometimes – but overall it gets the job done. Worth checking out if you want a hormone-free, natural birth control option.

Editor Opinion

So here's my take on Natural Cycles - Birth Control. I've tried a bunch of period/fertility tracking apps and this one's pretty solid. The science behind it is legit, and I like that it's a completely natural, hormone-free method of birth control. And no more popping pills or dealing with side effects. That said, the temperature tracking can be a little finicky, and it does take some getting used to. But if you're committed to using it, it can be a game-changer.

I love it and haven't had issues, it does take effort to track and take your temps and follow what the app says. But I agree with other negative reviews...

Rachel Dahn Oct 23, 2025

Great app. I find it annoying the thermometer not only beeps really loudly (with no way to turn it off- it wakes my partner), and that it does not automatically...

Justine Monique Oct 23, 2025

My only quelm is the thermometer doesn't sync with the app and it's so easy to miss the temp reading - you can't retrieve the record, it's just gone. Daisy...
