Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a cloud system and a method thereof, and relates particularly to a cloud system and a method thereof that can predict the menstrual cycle of women.

2. The Prior Arts

People of the modern day are often busy with work, and plans for starting a family are often bothersome to newly married young couples. In traditional Chinese societies, women face greater pressure compared to men when it comes to having children. As such, how women can effectively grasp the ovulation period which is key to pregnancy has become very important. Thus, newly married women will usually effectively grasp the ovulation date by means of using the ovulation agents or thermometers that are available in the market.

The ovulation agents are for measuring the changes in levels of the Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH). As shown in FIG. 1, the LH level of women will begin to increase before ovulation, reaches a peak on the day before ovulation, and the LH level will decrease rapidly after ovulation. The level of FSH reaches a high point seven days prior to ovulation, and begins to fall after two days. The level of FSH decreases and reaches a low point three days before ovulation, and will reach another high point on the day before ovulation. With regard to basal body temperature, the basal body temperature of women normally decreases by 0.1-0.2° C. prior to ovulation, and increases by 0.3-0.5° C. after ovulation. A temperature difference of 0.4-0.7° C. exists both before and after ovulation. The conventional ovulation agents predict the ovulation date of women by means of measuring level of FSH, level of LH and the basal body temperature.

However, since a lot of ovulation agents that are used in Taiwan are imported from Europe or the United States, therefore, the specifications of these ovulation agents comply with European or American specifications. The differences between the Europeans and Asians are therefore not considered. In terms of the ovulation period, there are differences in the values of FSH, LH and also values in the basal body temperature between European and American women as well as women from Asia. As such, if women from Asian countries directly use the ovulation agents that are imported from Europe or the United States, errors will always occur while using these ovulation agents.

In fact, following the advancement in technology, there has been a large increase in computing resources, storage resources as well as application resources. The traditional communications platform is converted to an intelligent arithmetic platform, enabling the users to access the services offered by the cloud system, by means of the browser or the smartphone apps. In the era of Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data, if the Life Sciences and Information Technology can be combined, then personalized, predictable and preventable menstrual cycle data can be effectively provided to Asian women, and as such, a customized health management service with regard to the menstrual cycle can be provided to Asian women.
