TL;DR<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Oura has announced two new in-app features, hormonal birth control support and menopause insights.<\/li>\n
  • New features expand cycle tracking to better contextualize contraceptive use and perimenopause.<\/li>\n
  • Both features are rolling out globally starting May 6.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
    \n

    Ora is expanding its women’s health toolkit with a greater focus on hormonal changes that don’t fit neatly into traditional cycle tracking. Today, the company announced hormonal birth control support and menopause insights as two new features coming to the Ora app.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    The first change comes to how Ora will handle hormonal contraception going forward. Users will now be able to log specific methods, including pills, IUDs, implants, patches, and more, and track how those choices affect things like temperature trends, sleep, and recovery. Instead of flattening everything into a pattern, the app will show how your baseline changes with the hormones on and off. This sounds obvious, but it’s something that most wearables still miss.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    Ora also announced a new partnership with TwentyEight Health, allowing users to connect with physicians for prescriptions and virtual consultations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    The new Menopause Insights feature focuses on a questionnaire that evaluates how symptoms such as sleep disruption, mood swings and cognitive changes affect users’ daily lives. After the assessment, users get a personalized dashboard breaking down those symptom patterns. From there, users can track changes over time and see how stress, sleep, or habits change with biometric data. Members can also save and share their results to facilitate more productive conversations with physicians.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    Hormonal birth control support and menopause insights both point to where women’s health tracking is headed next, but the true test will be how useful they feel in practice. More broadly, these updates make it clear that Oura is committed to becoming a long-term health companion, not just a sleep and recovery tracker. Birth control, pregnancy, and menopause are all part of that arc, and Ora is starting to connect those stages into one continuous experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
