Application: Coaching based on reproductive phases (Patent ID: US20240074709A1)

The patent filed by Whoop Inc. describes a system that uses physiological metrics such as heart rate variability, resting heart rate, body temperature, and respiration rate to track a user's hormonal cycle. By analyzing these metrics, the system can provide personalized recommendations for sleep, diet, and exercise based on the user's current phase in their hormonal cycle. The system involves acquiring physiological data from a wearable monitor, calculating various metrics daily, estimating the cycle time within the hormonal cycle, and providing coaching information to the user accordingly.

The system can be applied to various hormonal cycles, including menstrual cycles and pregnancies, and uses an ensemble of estimated cycle times derived from different physiological metrics to provide accurate recommendations. The system can be implemented through a computer program product with executable code, a method involving modeling timewise changes during a hormonal cycle, and a system comprising a wearable monitor, a model stored in memory, and a processor to generate recommendations based on the user's physiological data. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to leveraging physiological metrics for personalized coaching and recommendations based on the user's hormonal cycle.
