Ladytimer SMS: Why should I use it?
Ladytimer is a text message reminder service that will make your life easier. If you are trying to get pregnant or trying to avoid pregnancy, the best way to keep track of your
menstrual cycle is by receiving sms reminders directly on your cell phone. Think of Ladytimer as your monthly period cycle alarm clock.

Will I be spammed with text messages?
No.
How can I sign up for the service?

I don't live in the US, will your service work?
At this time, our ovulation calendar service using text messages is only available in the US and Canada. However, you can use our email reminder service
Do you guarantee that I will always get my reminder message?
No. Due to various reasons beyond our control, it is possible that a message gets lost. In general, there is no way for us to know if that happened. To improve the probability that you will always be notified, we schedule at least two messages to be sent to you before your menstrual period as well as ovulation. Therefore, it is highly likely, that you will always get at least one message for each menstrual cycle event.
Do you offer other reminder services?
Yes, users can create their own sms and email reminders for birthdays, anniversaries, doctor/dentist/spa/stylist appointments, breast self-exams, and any other type of calendar event you can think of.
Where can I schedule my own calendar events?
After you log in, click the 'Get My Events' button.
What if I need to delete events
Every calendar event has a delete button right next to it.
When I enter Birthdays, will you remind me every year?
Yes, birthdays and anniversaries are repeat events. They are automatically rescheduled for the following year.
I want to get pregnant now, what do you recommend?
You should consider buying a fertility monitor kit. It will pinpoint ovulation times with high accuracy in 99% of women. Take a look at our
