Time lag
The time lags that occur on long-distance journeys are for the most
part so great that your wake-up time is outside the “time window” in
which cyclotest® 2 plus accepts your measurement. If you start your
cycle immediately before or during the long-distance journey and are
able to take the first measurement at the destination, you can use
cyclotest® 2 plus. In all other cases, please call the cyclotest® service
hotline.
The female cycle
The female cycle is 28-29 days. Deviations of up to 5 days are consid-
ered to be within the normal standard range.
The temperature method, which is based on the comparative meas-
urement of the wake-up temperature during a woman’s individual
cycle phases, allows conclusions to be drawn about the processes in
a woman’s body. The more temperature values and information on
the cycle duration are available, the narrower the start and end of the
fertile phase can be pinpointed.
