menstrual cycle. Instead of guessing when you
will get your next period let Teena inform you.

What is basal body temperature?


Basal body temperature (BBT) is measured in the morning
after waking up. It’s also called waking temperature. At night,
the body temperature drops to its lowest value; during the
day, it rises slowly and reaches its maximum in the afternoon.
Viewed over a longer period of time, the resulting BBT curve
provides important information about your individual cycle.

What can it tell you?

Tracking your basal body temperature (BBT) makes period prediction super
accurate! With BBT, Teena can calculate if and when you have ovulated. And,
after ovulation, follows menstruation. Teena lets you know when to expect
your period.

Unique Insights

Your collected data, plus the Teena self-learning algorithm, combine to present
unique-to-you insight into your very own menstrual cycle.

But, like, how?


Your BBT is lower during your follicular phase (that’s the first
phase of your menstrual cycle). It then goes up a little after
you ovulate. Your BBT stays up during your luteal phase
(that’s the second phase of your menstrual cycle) until right
before your next period arrives.

The temperature change after ovulation is tiny. Your BBT


increases by just 0.5 ºF/0.3 ºC to 1.0 °F/0.6 ºC. Thankfully,
Teena is super smart and notices the change from lower
temperature to higher temperature. Teena’s temperature
sensor is perfectly designed for the job!

Where is my period?
The lowdown on puberty and irregular cycles: During
puberty, it is normal for around half of your cycles to not
include ovulation. Anovulatory cycles (cycles with no
ovulation) tend to be irregular and vary in length, but are
usually shorter than 21 days or longer than 35 days.

You may experience periods only once every two to three months, instead
of every month.

After you have your first period, you may not have another period for
several months.

As you get older, your cycles and periods will likely become more regular,
as more of your cycles include ovulation.

During cycles without ovulation, you won’t see signs like a rise in your
basal body temperature.

You may experience some spotting or what looks like a very light period
during these irregular cycles. This is called a breakthrough bleed, but
because ovulation did not happen, it is not called menstruation.

Breakthrough bleeding happens because there is no progesterone to


support estrogen in keeping the uterus lining together.
