Oura is expanding health insights on its Series 3 and 4 rings with detailed hormonal tracking, including monitoring potential side effects from various birth control methods.
The wearable ring maker is adding hormonal health features that go beyond basic cycle tracking. The new capabilities will monitor how different birth control options—including pills, patches, and other contraceptive methods—may affect users' bodies.
Users can now log their contraceptive choices and receive insights on potential side effects based on their biometric data collected by the ring, such as heart rate variability, sleep patterns, and temperature readings.
This expansion positions Oura among wearables increasingly focused on reproductive and hormonal health. The feature arrives as demand grows for personalized health data, particularly among women seeking detailed insights into how medications and lifestyle choices impact their physiology.
The updates are available now on Series 3 and 4 rings through Oura's mobile app. The company requires an active subscription to access the hormonal insights features.
