Episode 6 of our Teaching To Conceive Series


💛 As part of this Series we are running a free fertility masterclass also called, Teaching To Conceive. Katy will be delving more into cycle tracking and how to confidently spot ovulation on Tuesday 15th Oct. You can register ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here.⁠⁠ to watch live or get the play back. 💛


Today we delve into the various methods of cycle tracking, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of ovulation predictor kits (OPKs), basal body temperature (BBT) charting, cervical mucus observation, and cycle tracking apps.


We chat about:


  • Why cycle tracking provides valuable insights into menstrual health.
  • How OPKs predict ovulation but do not confirm it.
  • Why BBT charting helps assess luteal phase health.
  • Why we think Cervical mucus is great.
  • Why apps can be misleading if not used correctly.
  • How understanding your cycle can enhance fertility awareness.
  • Why finding the right tracking method is a personal decision and it's good to try different options.
