A full user manual explains all these terms in much more detail on www.sympto.org.

Can I try sympto while still taking contraceptive hormones?
Another question: Why doesn't sympto indicate "infertile" under the pill/hormone taking? sympto can determine the infertile and fertile phase only if it detects an ovulation. With the contraceptive pill or artificial hormones, sympto will indicate you almost always "blue fertile". Why? There is practically no ovulation any more. At the same time you know that sympto cannot be made responsible for an unwanted pregnancy that had occurred under the pill or because of having forgotten the pill. Our question we asking you: What is the benefit to observe a cycle that has been mutilated by artificial hormones? Certanily, from a scientific point of view, it could be interesting to find out how many ovulations occur under hormones. But this may be rather frustrating! With sympto, you observe your own natural cycle. As soon as you have recovered the confidence in your body and in your partner you can stop the damageing hormones.
