  • Patent number: 12171569
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for miscarriage identification are described. A system may be configured to receive physiological data associated with a user that is pregnant and collected over a plurality of days, where the physiological data includes at least temperature data. Additionally, the system may be configured to determine a time series of temperature values. The system may then identify that the temperature values are lower than a pregnancy baseline of temperature values for the user and detect an indication of an early pregnancy loss of the user. The system may generate a message for display on a graphical user interface on a user device that indicates the indication of the early pregnancy loss.

  • Publication number: 20230084205
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for menopause detection and treatment are described. A system may be configured to receive physiological data associated with a user from a wearable device, and identify one or more physiological indications of a hot flash experienced by the user based on the physiological data satisfying one or more thresholds. Additionally, the system may be configured to determine a metabolic efficiency metric associated with the user based on the received physiological data, and determine a menopause metric for the user based on the metabolic efficiency metric, where the menopause metric is associated with a relative probability that the user will experience menopausal symptoms. The system may then cause a graphical user interface (GUI) of a user device to display information associated with the identified hot flash and/or one or more messages associated with the menopause metric.

  • Publication number: 20220313146
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for pregnancy detection are described. A system may be configured to receive physiological data collected over a plurality of days, where the physiological data includes at least temperature data. Additionally, the system may be configured to determine a time series of temperature values taken over the plurality of days. The system may then identify temperature elevations in the time series of the temperature values relative to a temperature baseline for the user and detect an indication of a pregnancy of the user based on the identified temperature elevations. The indication of the pregnancy may be detectable from the identified temperature elevations prior to being detectable from a threshold increase in hormone elevations relative to a hormone baseline of the user. The system may cause the graphical user interface to display the detected indication of the pregnancy.

  • Publication number: 20220319690
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for labor onset and birth identification and prediction are described. A system may be configured to receive physiological data associated with a user that is pregnant and collected over a plurality of days, where the physiological data includes at least temperature data. Additionally, the system may be configured to determine a time series of temperature values. The system may then calculate a pregnancy baseline temperature slope for the user and identify that the temperature slope deviates from the pregnancy baseline temperature slope for the user. The system may detect an indication of a labor onset of the user and generate a message for display on a graphical user interface on a user device that indicates the indication of the labor onset.

  • Publication number: 20220313149
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for a pregnancy mode configuration are described. In some cases, the system may receive physiological data associated with a user from a wearable device and provide a first set of targets associated with one or more physiological metrics and a first set of messages associated with the one or more physiological metrics based on the received physiological data. The system may receive an indication of the user being pregnant. In some cases, the system may identify a trigger to transition from the first operational mode to a second operational mode of the application based on receiving the indication. The system may provide a second set of targets associated with the one or more physiological metrics and a second set of messages associated with the one or more physiological metrics that are adjusted for pregnancy based on the second operational mode.
