- The core of the preparation of our ring obtains a large upgrade
- The algorithm now takes into account biometric changes in the menstrual cycle
- It will guarantee more precise assessments of daily well-being
Yes, the manufacturers of some of the best intelligent rings you can buy, today unveiled an update of its preparation score algorithm which, according to the company, will ensure more precise measures for menstrual monitoring.
In addition to a new pregnancy study and a new under-represented menstruation study, the company has deployed the improvement of the algorithm to its intelligent rings, including the Oura Ring 4.
As the company notes it, previous research carried out using the Ring Oura “revealed how hormonal fluctuations linked to the cycle can have an impact on women’s physiology and daily life”. Now, the company takes advantage of this data by updating its preparation score to take into account “the biometric changes that each individual experiences during his cycle”, a decision that says that society will ensure “a more precise evaluation of daily well-being”.
Oura Ring’s Readiness Adthgrade
According to Oura, “35% of cycling members will not see any impact on their preparation score during their luteal phase”. As the company notes “many women experience an increase in heart rate and temperature and a decrease in the variability of heart rate”, which are all measures that take into account a preparation score and could otherwise be a sign of increased stress and deformation.
Oura says that all members who see an impact should only see a lower preparation score out of three percent of days, an overall decrease of 81% of the days when members see their cycle affecting their score. Generally, this should mean that members see better scores overall during the menstrual cycle.
Holly Shelton, product manager at Oura, said that Oura was “dedicated to ensuring that the characteristics of our applications precisely reflect the last scientific understanding of the physiological changes that women experience”, and said that this decision would help allow “women to navigate their unique cycles with the most accurate and personalized information as possible.”
Oura also announced a study of 10,000 participants in pregnancy in partnership with the Research Digital Trials Center scripps.
