You can now use your Oura Ring with Natural Cycles, the first FDA cleared birth control app. Natural Cycles users with an Oura Ring can automatically sync their temperature trend data collected overnight into the Natural Cycles app each morning, which will then be analyzed using Natural Cycle’s algorithm to calculate daily fertility status.
Setting Up Natural Cycles
The integration is available to Gen2 users and Gen3 users with an active membership. You must have a Natural Cycles subscription to use this integration.
There are no changes in the Oura App. The Natural Cycles app is available on iOS or Android.
- Open the Natural Cycles app

- In the morning, your temperature trend data from Oura will automatically sync with the Natural Cycles app. You can also manually sync your data by opening the Natural Cycles app and pressing the “Sync Oura Ring” button from the "Add Data" page
Data Synced with Natural Cycles
Temperature trend data collected overnight from the Oura Ring will be synced to the Natural Cycles app every day to help calculate your fertility status within the Natural Cycles app. The temperature sensors in the Oura Ring generate 1,440 data points each day, and are validated to measure temperature changes as precisely as 0.13°C (0.23°F).
