Your cycle.
Your observations.
With AURA, you can track your cycle and record what your discharge looks like. Your entries build a personal history. With your consent, they also support our research.
Read the consent information01 / WHY KEEP A VISUAL RECORD?
Your history is
your reference.
Discharge can look different from one day to the next. The patterns that are typical for you become clearer over time. Images and notes help you compare your own observations and get to know your cycle.

What is NFP?NFP, briefly explained
NFP means natural family planning and draws on decades of cycle research. The German NFP working group, from which Sensiplan developed, was founded in 1981.
The symptothermal method combines cervical mucus observations and waking temperature using defined rules. It can be used for hormone-free contraception, pregnancy planning and learning about your cycle.
The method has been studied scientifically. Sensiplan reports a Pearl Index of about 0.4 with correct use and 1.8 in the everyday use studied. The Pearl Index describes unintended pregnancies per 100 women in one year.
Reliability depends on training, the method and consistent use. These figures do not apply to photo tracking alone or to AURA. NFP does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.
