Some people will go to any lengths!!

I recently came across a story about a new technique being used in Japan to notify a woman that she is fertile.

According to the article there is a cell phone available in Japan that is designed to ring or send a text message to let a woman trying to get pregnant know that she is at her most fertile. The user can enter data into the phone about her menstrual cycle and then program the phone to alert her three days before ovulation and again on the actual day of ovulation. It sounds a little out there doesn’t it?

For women who are having a hard time getting pregnant this might just be a perfect solution. Timing your ovulation and figuring out when you are most fertile can be a bit of challenge, why not have your cell phone help out a little?

In Japan the birth rate is pretty low. On average a woman will bear only 1.25 children in her lifetime. This is an all time low for the birth rate in Japan, and is one of the lowest in the world. Maybe this new cell phone will help bring their birth rate up a little.
