보름달 🌝 #1 Service Info (ENG)

1. Proposal

    In recent times, social situations such as extreme diet, stress, exposure to environmental hormones, and mixed nights-days threaten women uterine health, and they suffer from polycystic ovary disease, premature menopause, and infertility. The number of women with menstrual disorders has increased 3.56 times from 2000 to 2010. The establishment of menstrual cycles is important because it is a basic index of women's health. Thus, period tracker applications are essential for women.

    However, despite a number of services in the speaker NUGU, period tracker service based on voice is not available. If the voice service is avaiable, women can get great convenience.

    On the other hand, most women have mental pain as part of the PMS. Nugu speaker is unhuman, but users can get comfort from it. According to analysis of SKT, the words that the users use most frequently is 'I love you.' Therefore, our '보름달' service was planned that could satisfy women with many difficulties, not only in technical aspects but also in emotional aspects.

    We named our service “보름달(Fullmoon)” because the moon and women's menstruation cycle were found to be somewhat related. The moon's brightness directly affects the secretion of melatonin hormones which regulate women's menstrual cycles. By comparing the data of the menstrual cycle of 8,000 women with changes in the moon, it has been confirmed that as in the past, modern women often ovulate in the crescent and begin menstrual periods in the full moon. The monthly cycle of inner lining of the uterus to thicken and collapse is similar to that of the moon waxes and wanes.

2. Related Services

    You can already download multiple applications with similar functions from Apple's App Store and Google Play Store. The most downloaded period tracker application, called 'PeriodTracker', is a typical example. Menstruation and ovulation cycle can be calculated, and the possibility of pregnancy can be calculated accordingly to prepare for pregnancy. It also provides various health-related services about sex life, weight, body temperature and other symptoms. It also has functions such as a prediction of menstruation date and helping with taking contraceptives.

    We Passengers team noted that none of the many menstrual cycle calculators, besides PeriodTracker, offers voice-based services. If NUGU speakers and '보름달(Fullmoon)' applications can be used together, a simple conversation will solve the problem of entering, requesting and receiving various information.
