Frequently asked questions

How does periods.day estimate my cycle?

periods.day uses the period days you enter to estimate where you may be in your cycle. The more past periods you add, the more personal the estimate becomes. It’s still only an estimate. We base our estimations on Real-life insights on menstrual cycles and ovulation using big data (Soumpasis et al., 2020).

How is my cycle data stored?

Your period dates, goal and duration settings are encoded in the link and read in your browser. periods.day does not save them. Each link is an independent snapshot: people you share it with can change their own copy, but they cannot edit your entries. Changes are not synced. If you add or change data, you need to share a new link to send the updated version.

Can I use periods.day as birth control?

Don't be silly. Calendar predictions cannot identify safe days and should not replace contraception. Cycle timing can change, and pregnancy can occur outside a predicted fertile window. Read ACOG fertility guidance

What does the fertile window mean?

It is an estimate of the days when pregnancy is more likely. ACOG describes the fertile period as roughly the five days before ovulation through one day after; ovulation itself can shift from cycle to cycle.

What if my cycles are irregular?

Predictions are less reliable when cycle length varies. Log every day of several periods for more personal estimates, and talk to a clinician if you are worried about your cycle.

What happens when I share my link?

The full URL includes the dates and tracking goal you entered. Anyone you share it with sees the same estimate and can change it in their own browser. Treat the link as private: the data is encoded, not encrypted.

How are fertility percentages calculated?

These estimates use pregnancy data from 221 women who were actively trying for a baby and had stopped using contraception. They recorded each day whether they had intercourse. Li, Wilcox and Dunson (2015, Table 3) used a statistical model to estimate the chance of a clinical pregnancy from one act on a given cycle day. This does not mean the women had sex once every day. The study did not record whether ejaculation occurred inside the vagina. These figures therefore do not estimate the risk with withdrawal. Our calendar shifts the study’s curve to match the calculated ovulation day or the cycle day you set. This is an approximation, not a validated personal prediction. Days before the table starts use its first value. The percentages are population estimates, not your personal odds or a contraceptive method. Li, Wilcox & Dunson (2015)
