Should I start the measurements on the first day of my period?

We recommend that you wait until the first day marked as 'important measurement' when your new cycle begins to start setting up your new routine with inne. This differs from each individual, depending on the average length of the cycle, but not starting directly on the first day of your period.

That way, you can see how your complete cycle works, from establishing a progesterone baseline to getting your ovulation detected and finally approaching a new menstrual cycle. The inne minilab is designed to capture the dynamic pattern of you day-to-day progesterone levels by comparing measurements from your follicular phase (pre-ovulation, low progesterone) and luteal phase (post-ovulation, high progesterone). 

Your progesterone baseline is established during your follicular phase and is essential for detecting the progesterone rise following ovulation. Your minilab needs sufficient measurements from your follicular phase to establish a solid baseline, and inne makes it easy for you to identify those essential days, as they are marked as 'important measurements' in your inne app.

When can I start after stopping hormonal contraception?
After discontinuing hormonal contraception, such as the pill, your hormone levels remain altered initially. Before using inne, it is necessary to wait for at least three regular cycles to ensure that your measured progesterone levels are no longer distorted.

I’m still breastfeeding. Can I already start using inne?
During breastfeeding, hormone levels are still changing. In this case, it is also important to wait until after breastfeeding to allow your hormonal balance to stabilize. Begin your inne routine after experiencing at least three regular cycles.
