How to Use Pregnancy Insights
There are two ways to enable Pregnancy Insights:
-
Tap on the
menu in the upper-left corner of the home screen. Select Settings > Women's Health, and toggle on the feature. Once Pregnancy Insights is turned on, cycle-related sections will be hidden, and you’ll be prompted to onboard
- Add the "Positive Pregnancy Test" tag, which will prompt you to learn more and onboard
During the onboarding process, you can read more about privacy and set your estimated due date. If you don’t know your due date yet, you can input your last period date and menstrual cycle length and an estimated due date will be calculated. To enable the feature, you must complete the onboarding slides and set an estimated due date in order for your gestational age to be calculated. You can go back into your settings at any point and change your estimated due date, and this will also recalculate your gestational age.
Once enabled, you'll see a Pregnancy Insights shortcut and card in your Today tab. The card will show which trimester you're in, your gestational age, and your next milestone.
Tapping on the card or shortcut will take you to the detail view, which will include a weekly message about how the maternal body changes during pregnancy, additional educational information, and an opportunity to provide anonymous feedback about your experience with the feature and what you’d like to see next.
You can turn off Pregnancy Insights in a few different ways:
- Go the Pregnancy Insights detail view from the home card or shortcut on the Today tab, tap the Settings
icon in the upper-right corner, then toggle off the feature
- Tap the
- You can also use the tags "pregnancy loss" or "birth" to automatically turn off Pregnancy Insights
This will remove your pregnancy data.
Increased progesterone levels or other changes during pregnancy can cause your average body temperature to increase slightly. If your temperature data regularly records a significant and consistent temperature change from your baseline, it may take 60 to 90 days for this temperature baseline to normalize in your Oura App. You can continue to track your temperature trends through the Body temperature graph.
Pregnancy Insights and Cycle Insights
When Pregnancy Insights are turned on, Cycle Insights are temporarily hidden but not deleted. Your cycle data stays saved in the background and will be available it if you choose to turn Cycle Insights back on later.
Cycle Insights also adapts to support you during and after pregnancy. If you scroll back to the timeframe when you were pregnant, that stage is acknowledged throughout your cycle history.
After pregnancy, cycle phases and chance of conception are shown as unknown, and period predictions and logging reminders pause until a new period is logged. It’s normal for the menstrual cycle to take time to adjust after pregnancy. You can use Cycle Insights again when your body is ready and your cycle resumes.
How to Remove Your Women's Health Data
Women's Health data may include information about your cycles, such as your latest period start date and cycle length, women's health-related tags (such as positive pregnancy test, ovulation, positive LH test, etc.), period prediction settings, reproductive hormone answers, pregnancy information, and fertile window. Your data is collected, used, and protected in compliance with Oura's Privacy Policy.
You can remove your data from the app at any time in the Settings menu under Women’s Health. Removing your data will disable all Women's Health features in the Oura App. If you would like to delete from Oura’s servers completely, you can choose Delete account and all data in the Settings menu or through Oura on the Web.

Things to Keep in Mind
- As your body adapts to pregnancy, you may see daily changes in your Readiness contributors, which can affect your Readiness Score. Try to focus on your long-term trends in your vitals as opposed to your daily scores
- The length of each trimester is defined differently by different organizations; Oura is using the definition as defined by The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG)
