By really getting to know you! The first step is our Health Assessment, an extensive online survey where we ask you questions about your medical and birth control history, any conditions you’re living with now or in the past, and your well-being goals. If you’d like to speak to the team about your recommendation or ask us more questions, you can chat to one of our physicians.

Yes. Medical researchers review all the scientific papers we use to generate your recommendations. Your recommendations report is also reviewed by a doctor before we show it to you. You can also get in touch with our specialized team to discuss your options or get further support.

For $29, we offer a personalized recommendation report and a prescription for your birth control method of choice. After your birth control recommendations have been reviewed by one of our physicians, you can choose a method and one of our doctors will write a prescription and send it to your pharmacy within 2 working days.

The cost of your birth control will be covered by insurance as per your policy, when you collect it at your pharmacy. The cost of Tuune‘s recommendations and prescription is currently not covered, but we’ve worked to bring you a service that is cheaper and more convenient than a visit to the doctor, in most cases.

• Hormonal contraceptives including the combined pill, progestogen-only pill, the patch, the ring, the implant, the injection, and intrauterine devices (IUD).

• Reversible non-hormonal contraceptives: the copper IUD.

• If appropriate, other methods such as Fertility Awareness Based (FAB) methods.
  
  Our recommendation is based on your unique medical history as well as your personal situation. We’re completely agnostic, meaning we look through all available birth control methods before making our recommendation. If you’d rather stick to one specific method (say, the pill), just let us know and we’ll suggest different options.

It all depends on A) which method you’re currently using and B) which method you’re switching to. Once we’ve shared your recommendation, if you’d like to switch, we’ll let you know exactly what to do next, as well as whether you should use additional protection in the short term.

Our medical team – with over 75 years of combined experience – has built a tool that does exactly what you would expect from your regular gynecologist visit, but we go much more in-depth. We also really get to know you by asking questions you may not have been asked before about preferences, well-being factors, symptoms, contraceptive history, etc.
Plus, we take our time! Our Health Assessment takes on average 30 minutes, but you can spend as long as you need answering our questions (either in one go or you can come back to it later). We’re able to gather much more information during this time than is usually possible within a typical clinician setting. By letting us know more about you, we can make informed recommendations about your birth control.

The Tuune platform has undergone rigorous medical and regulatory reviews to ensure the utmost safety for everyone. Every Tuune recommendation meets the US Medical Eligibility Criteria (US MEC) for Contraceptive Use. You're in safe hands.

We don't share your data with any third parties. Your information will only be shared with Tuune clinicians and scientists in order to provide you with information about your hormones and to improve our service to users.

If you have requested a prescription from a physician, they will directly contact your preferred pharmacy and you can arrange a collection directly with them.

Each report is reviewed in detail by one of our physicians, so it can take up to 2 business days to arrive. We'll email you as soon as it's ready. If it takes longer than this, please get in touch at help@tuune.com.
