Apple Watch can accurately predict the ovulation period of women, really?

Apple Watch can predict the ovulation period of women to some extent, but the accuracy is not 100%.

First of all, it is theoretically feasible to monitor body temperature with Apple Watch. With the increasing popularity of sports watches, watches are endowed with more and more functions. Everyone knows to monitor sleep, monitor heart rate and so on. Very good, it is theoretically feasible to monitor body temperature with Apple Watch. After all, if you wear a watch for a long time, the watch can measure the body temperature at that time to some extent. Watch phones also have a very important function, which is to collect and analyze big data.

It can be seen that, in theory, it is feasible to monitor the body temperature with Apple Watch and predict the ovulation period of women with body temperature. Because studies have shown that women's body temperature will be higher than usual when ovulating, as long as Apple Watch detects that their body temperature is relatively high during this time, it is very likely to ovulate, which has certain theoretical basis.

But there may be some surprises in its prediction principle. The so-called Apple Watch can accurately predict the ovulation period of women, which is achieved by detecting body temperature. But as we all know, watches are mostly worn on the wrist, and the wrist is not a very accurate part to predict body temperature. The body temperature may change with the change of the external environment, so there must be some differences in the predicted ovulation period.

Anyone who has been pregnant knows that although some people will predict the ovulation period by overheating, they usually measure their body temperature at a fixed place and time. The way of taking temperature by wearing a watch itself is very lax. Just like the popular temperature gun now, although it is very convenient to operate, it usually tells us that the mercury thermometer is the most accurate. Therefore, in order to accurately monitor the ovulation period, a more professional way is needed.

The most important thing is that the relationship between body temperature and ovulation period is not as accurate as advertised. Although some people will detect their ovulation period by monitoring their body temperature, in fact, due to the influence of many elements, it is not very accurate to predict ovulation period by only one element. In the past, when a friend of mine was pregnant, she would always pay attention to her ovulation period because pregnancy itself was very difficult. Doctors can't help you predict in such a simple and rude way, and usually need to do B-ultrasound.

If only one body temperature can accurately predict the ovulation period, then there is no need for more advanced instruments to monitor it. This way may give us some hints, but we can't rely on him completely. If Apple Watch can predict the ovulation period of women to a certain extent, I think it is true, but if it can accurately predict the ovulation period of women, it is exaggerated.

In fact, there are many methods to predict women's ovulation period, which are acceptable or inconsistent. The most accurate way to predict women's ovulation period is through instruments, so the prediction of Apple Watch can be used as a reference, but not as a standard.
