OvulaRing Hygiene Instructions

When using OvulaRing, it is very important to maintain good hygiene. Please wash your hands every time before inserting or removing OvulaRing.

The OvulaRing biosensor and plastic ring are shipped separately and are hygienically clean. Please do not remove the biosensor and plastic ring from their packaging until you are ready to insert them.

Thoroughly clean the biosensor and plastic ring with one of the included disinfectant wipes before each use.

After each time you remove the biosensor from your body, simply wash it with mild, pH-neutral soap under lukewarm running water. Then rinse the biosensor thoroughly with clean water and dry it.

When do I insert the ring?

The OvulaRing should be inserted no later than the 6th day of your cycle. It will then continuously track your temperature and will have enough data even if your fertile days occur very early in the cycle.

OvulaRing is just as easy to use as a tampon. Since the ring is made of flexible plastic, you can easily squeeze it and then insert it deep into the vagina—without needing your doctor’s help.

You can remove the OvulaRing during your period. However, be sure to reinsert it by the 6th day of your cycle at the latest. If you are still experiencing light bleeding at that time, you can still reinsert the OvulaRing.

To ensure that OvulaRing can reliably detect your temperature patterns and provide you with a daily analysis, you should record as many readings as possible, even during your first cycle. However, if you have very long cycles, you may not want to wait until your new cycle begins. If you are still several weeks away from your expected period, there is a very high probability that OvulaRing will be able to track your fertility patterns around the time of ovulation.

Please note: OvulaRing is a personalized medical device and must therefore not be shared with anyone else.

When can I remove OvulaRing from the body?

You can remove the OvulaRing from your body as often as you like, for example, to transfer data. It doesn’t matter what time of day you do this. Just make sure to reinsert the OvulaRing within 1 hour at the latest to avoid a significant gap in the data.

Starting with the second cycle, we recommend transferring your data daily, a few days before the fertile phase was identified in the first cycle. To do this, you must remove the OvulaRing from your body. Once new data is available, your daily probability of conception can be calculated.

If the app indicates that your fertile days for your current cycle are over, you no longer need to remove the sensor and transfer the data every day. OvulaRing can remain in your body until the end of your cycle.

For hygiene reasons, the plastic ring should be replaced after 30 days of use at the latest. To do this, remove the sensor from the old ring and insert it into the new, disinfected plastic ring. This way, you can continue wearing the OvulaRing for the remainder of your cycle.

You should also remove the OvulaRing during your period. You can store the plastic ring and the sensor in the included case while you’re on your period. The temperature readings taken during your period are less relevant to your fertility patterns.
