BedPost is not a medical device, and nothing in the app constitutes medical advice. Fertility tracking, cycle predictions, Connection Score calculations, and AI coaching responses are for informational and personal wellness purposes only.
Not a Medical Device
BedPost has not been cleared or approved by the FDA, the CE (EU), or any other medical regulatory authority as a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition, including but not limited to infertility, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, or sexually transmitted infections.
Fertility Tracking Limitations
The fertility window and ovulation predictions in BedPost are statistical estimates based on the cycle data you enter. They are not a reliable method of contraception and should not be used as such.
- Predictions may be inaccurate for irregular cycles
- They do not account for stress, illness, medication, or other factors that affect ovulation
- If you are trying to conceive or avoid pregnancy, consult a licensed healthcare provider
AI Coach Limitations
The BedPost AI Insight Coach (Bex) is an AI-powered conversational feature. Bex's responses are generated by a large language model and are not reviewed by medical or mental health professionals.
Bex AI — Educational Use Only
Bex is for education, reflection, and personal coaching only. Bex is not a doctor, therapist, pharmacist, or licensed clinician, and nothing Bex says is medical, psychological, legal, or contraceptive advice.
What Bex will not do
- Diagnose any medical or mental-health condition (including PCOS, endometriosis, depression, anxiety, infertility, STIs, or pregnancy).
- Confirm or rule out a pregnancy or sexually transmitted infection — only a licensed clinician and a validated test can do that.
- Tell you to start, stop, change, or skip any prescribed medication, supplement, or contraceptive method.
- Provide crisis intervention, suicide-risk assessment, or therapy.
If you are in crisis
If you are thinking about harming yourself or someone else, or you are in immediate danger, please reach a human now:
- United States — 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, call or text, 24/7)
- Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741 (US, UK, Canada, Ireland)
- International — findahelpline.com lists vetted hotlines in 130+ countries.
- If life is in immediate danger, call your local emergency number (911 in the US, 999 in the UK, 112 in the EU).
If Bex detects language suggesting you may be in crisis, it will pause coaching and surface these resources automatically. We log only the fact that a crisis prompt was shown — never the message text — so we can keep the safety net working.
How Bex works
- Model: Bex is built on a third-party large language model accessed via our backend. The model can be wrong, outdated, or make things up. Verify anything important with a qualified human.
- What we send: only the data needed to personalize the response — your Connection Score, recent activity counts, cycle phase (if you have enabled cycle context), your tone/focus preferences, and the message you typed. We do not send your name, partner names, contact details, or payment info to the model.
- What we keep: chat sessions are stored on your device for your own history. A short transcript may also be retained server-side for up to 90 days for abuse-prevention and product-safety review, then deleted. You can wipe everything by requesting account erasure (Privacy Settings → Delete account).
- Opt out: Bex is a Plus feature and is opt-in by definition — you only use it when you open the AI Coach tab. Cycle data sharing with Bex can be disabled in Settings → Privacy → "Let Bex use my cycle data". Disabling it stops symptoms, notes, and phase information from ever being sent to the model.
Always consult a professional
Bex is a starting point for your own thinking — not a substitute for care. For anything that affects your physical or mental health, contraception, fertility plans, prescribed medication, or relationship safety, please talk to a qualified, licensed professional.
Consult a Professional
For any health concern — physical or mental — please consult a qualified, licensed healthcare provider. Do not delay seeking professional medical advice because of something you read or experienced in BedPost.
If you are in the United States and experiencing a mental health crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline).
