Abstract

But it's easy to miss a dose, so for most users, efficacy drops to 91%--which means nearly 1 million U.S. women a year have unplanned pregnancies, despite being on the pill. The case syncs with an app that increases accountability by sending custom reminders to take the pill, follows up if users don't remove a pill from the case, offers pill delivery, and lets users track their cycle and mood. The health-tech company Emme has developed a Bluetooth-connected smart case ($99) that works with more than 100 different brands of birth control pills. [Extracted from the article]
