What happened
Phira unveiled a behind-ear wearable that models estrogen, LH, and progesterone dynamics from skin temperature at 0.03°C resolution, not from blood or urine. The pilot: 12 women, 31 cycles, compared with daily urine. A larger study including PCOS and perimenopause is underway, launch targeted for 2027.
Evidence: Pilot validation study; n=12
What it means for practice
a temperature model that tracks cycle pattern is a real step, and the perimenopause data will be interesting. Twelve women for now, so it sits alongside the lab, not in place of it.
