Contraceptive app "Natural Cycles" is being blamed for 37 unwanted pregnancies
Birth control apps may be convenient but they're not proven to be more effective than any other method of contraception.
Natural Cycles — which once claimed to be "the only approved Contraceptive app out there" — appealed to users through confident branding, touting the lack of side effects that pills and IUDs can cause. And while that sounds nice, with no hormonal regulations, the app's potential for success is a bit dubious.
