Until now, the induced abortion industry and its supporters have ironically heavily influenced many fertility tracking apps. However, a new pro-life option has hit the market, giving Christian women in particular a life-affirming alternative. And even better – it features AAPLOG physicians!
“ana kate” was founded by author and podcaster Allie Beth Stuckey after she realized that most of the fertility apps available didn’t align with Christian beliefs. She wanted to create something that affirms the beauty and complexity of womanhood while valuing life at every stage. She named the venture “ana kate” to represent a woman’s cyclical patterns: the Greek prefix “ana” means up (like the rising phase of a woman’s cycle), and the prefix “kata” means down (the natural falling movement of the cycle).
The app offers five main features. Women can track their cycles by logging symptoms and other patterns to understand their bodies better. Pregnancy tracking is also available, with week-by-week prompts, milestones, and logging space. The app also includes daily Bible verses and a private prayer board to encourage women. Lastly, the app includes a pro-life practitioner directory so women can connect with Christian healthcare professionals who treat Life with the utmost respect.
We are proud to have AAPLOG CEO Dr. Christina Francis and AAPLOG Director of Research Dr. Ingrid Skop featured in the app. Through this outlet, our physicians are demystifying pregnancy for countless mothers, increasing AAPLOG’s reach to the women who need it most. Our team is happy to collaborate with such a life-affirming initiative, especially because ana kate – unlike so many other apps – doesn’t sell consumer data to promote abortion.
This is an excellent app to recommend to your female patients, friends, and family who are seeking a pro-life and Christian option to understand their menstrual cycle better and receive evidence-based life-affirming information throughout their pregnancy. AAPLOG is proud to endorse and partner with ana kate as the Medical Voice for Life.
