Pregnancy Mode: What It Changes and What It Cannot Tell You
Learn how Pregnancy Mode adjusts My Bio Age’s wellness scoring, how to enable it and why it is not a prenatal assessment.
By My Bio Age
My Bio Age includes an optional Pregnancy Mode in Settings. It changes how selected metrics contribute to the MyBioAge Index™. This is an adjustment to a consumer wellness model, not a test of pregnancy health, fetal wellbeing or a person’s biological age during pregnancy.
What the setting changes
The scoring model changes the relative emphasis of selected health metrics when the pregnancy setting is enabled. It does not make every wearable measurement unaffected by pregnancy, and it cannot decide whether an individual change is expected or needs medical attention.
In particular, a reassuring Index or green score must not be used to dismiss symptoms or a blood pressure reading. Discuss pregnancy-specific interpretation and exercise plans with your prenatal care team.
How to enable Pregnancy Mode
- Open My Bio Age Settings.
- Find Medical Conditions.
- Enable “I am pregnant”.
- Review the adjustment information shown in the app.
The setting is chosen by you. The app does not diagnose or automatically detect pregnancy. It can be turned off when appropriate for your circumstances.
What happens to previous scores?
The Index is stored by complete week. Changing a setting does not guarantee that previously stored weekly results will be immediately recalculated. Take care when comparing results across a settings change, a new app version or a period with different data coverage.
Use the underlying records as context
If you choose to continue tracking, review sleep, activity and other measurements as observations rather than targets you must optimise. A score is not an instruction to change food intake, exercise intensity, medication or prenatal care.
Pregnancy Mode and its calculations stay on your device. My Bio Age does not send pregnancy status or health readings to a clinical partner. See the privacy policy for details about the consumer app’s local processing.
If you choose to keep a personal wellness view during pregnancy, download My Bio Age free on the App Store. The iPhone app is completely free, with no in-app purchases, subscription or account required. Your health data is processed privately on your iPhone.
