Clue helps women to understand their menstrual cycle patterns better and learn about their reproductive health. It does that through its period tracking app, which combines science and technology to allow women to learn, access, and talk about menstrual and reproductive health around the world. While basic period tracking features are available for free, the premium subscription called "Clue Plus" offers subscribers additional evidence-based features and advanced insights. Further, subscribers can access modes like Clue Conceive, a CE-marked Clue feature to accompany users on their conception journey.
