Vaginal device and method for measuring fertility-related parameter
A vaginal device configured to be inserted in a vagina of a user, the vaginal device comprising: a body comprising at least two electrodes configured to measure a fertility-related parameter of the user; a power source configured to provide power to the device; and an electrical system operably connected to the power source, the electrical system operably connected to one or more of the electrodes, the electrical system configured to switch one or more of the electrodes between charging and measuring functions.
BODY TEMPERATURE DIAGNOSTICS
The disclosure relates to a method and a system for determining the fertility status of a female and/or the status of a biomarker in a mammal or human being. A method the method comprises determining, for a plurality of first time intervals, a continuous series of temperature data points relating to a body temperature. The method further comprises determining, in the series of data points, for each one of one of the plurality of first time intervals, a difference between a temperature maximum and a temperature minimum to obtain a plurality of temperature amplitudes. A series of temperature amplitudes is determined from the plurality of temperature amplitudes and determining if a first portion of the series of temperature amplitudes varies from a second portion of the series of temperature amplitudes, the variation indicating a change in the status of the biomarker.
INTRAVAGINAL SUPPORT DEVICES AND METHODS
The present disclosure, in certain embodiments, relates to a flexible and non-absorbent vaginal insert device that is easier to insert and remove and is for use in improving and preventing symptoms associated with pelvic organ prolapse and urinary and/or fecal incontinence when the device is inserted. In certain embodiments, the device has an optionally cone-shaped upper portion that provides pelvic organ support and a removal portion or stem that facilitates insertion and removal of the device.

Device and Method for Prediction and Characterization of a Conception Cycle
The device and method for calculating and displaying to a user a predicted fertility window, start and end date, and conception planning guide for the user is presented. The device and method include a vaginal sensor device having a plurality of sensors to collect measurements related to vaginal and cervical parameters that are important to the conception cycle. The device and method are customized for an individual user through the input by a user of menstrual cycle timing and duration, ovulation data, temperature data, and other data that are personal to the user. The system utilizes all collected sensor measurements, input user data, and historical data to provide a predicted fertility window, including predicted start and end dates, for the user.
PROCESSING A PHYSICAL SIGNAL
There are described herein methods and apparatus for processing a physical signal, in particular for processing data obtained in relation to the physical characteristics of a user, in particular a female user. One or more sensors can be used to obtain the data, in particular indwelling thermometers, aural thermometers, blood pressure and heart rate monitors. There are also described herein methods and apparatus for analysing and further processing the data to obtain and provide health information in relation to the user, in particular in relation to the user's fertility or state of ovulation.
VAGINAL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MEASURING FERTILITY-RELATED PARAMETER
A vaginal device configured to be inserted in a vagina of a user, the vaginal device comprising: a body comprising at least two electrodes configured to measure a fertility-related parameter of the user; a power source configured to provide power to the device; and an electrical system operably connected to the power source, the electrical system operably connected to one or more of the electrodes, the electrical system configured to switch one or more of the electrodes between charging and measuring functions.
HEALTH STATE MONITORING DEVICE
A system and method for determining a user's physical condition such as a hormonal level are provided. The system includes a portable or wearable device that measures multiple biomarkers, such as basal body temperature, saliva salinity, saliva pH, sweat ions, skin thickness, vitamin levels or breath carbon dioxide. The system determines the physical condition, such as the fertility level of the user based on comparing the measured biomarkers with data models. The determined physical condition, such as the fertility level, is communicated to allow the user to know their status.
