Tempdrop charting feature interpretations
The Tempdrop app uses a custom set of scientifically-backed calculations to interpret fertility symptoms to track ovulation.
Temperatures
A cover line is placed through the highest of the previous 6 results. One of 3 calculations may be applied to verify a valid temperature shift.
- Standard rise: 1st temp must be at least 0.05C/0.1F above the cover line and 3rd day must reach a minimum of 0.2C/0.4F above the line.
- Exception 1: If the 3rd day doesn't reach the required value, a 4th day above the line is needed.
- Exception 2: If the 2nd or 3rd temp falls to or below the line, a 4th temp is required and it must reach a minimum of 0.2C/0.4F above the line
Cervical Mucus
Cervical Mucus fertility categories are displayed in the chart by color and rank. If both sensation and visible observation are entered, the highest-ranked fertility type of the two will be displayed.
Peak day is the last day of the most fertile type for that cycle before an abrupt change back down the categories to less fertile/none. The 3 days following the peak will require observations to be entered (if dry, enter none or dry) for the app to set Peak day and add a count of 123. If one of those 3 days goes back up in the fertility scale, a new peak day will be identified.
Peak day indication will be locked in place
after ovulation is verified.
