Natural Cycles
About
Founded in 2013 by Dr. Elina Berglund Scherwitzl and Dr. Raoul Scherwitzl, Natural Cycles is a leading women’s digital health company that developed the world’s first birth control app.
As a medical device, the NC° app is cleared by the FDA in the United States and certified to be used as a contraceptive in the UK, Canada, Australia, Singapore, and South Korea.
The NC° app is powered by an algorithm and artificial intelligence that use body temperature to determine each user’s daily fertility status.
Users can manually take their body temperature with a thermometer or sync overnight temperature trend data from an Oura Ring or Apple Watch when they wake up.
”We’re excited to work together with Lauxera Capital Partners, leveraging their expertise to fulfill Natural Cycles’ mission of making hormone-free birth control more accessible and combining technology and science to fill the gaps in underserved areas of women’s health.
