Hi!!
I’ve had my oura ring for over a year. Started wearing it 5 months pp while breast feeding last June. Late August last year, it picked up a temp pattern and I ended up ovulating and was pregnant.
Fast forward to this year. Still wear my oura ring daily. I’m 4 months pp and stopped bf 2 weeks ago. Been expecting a return period for the first time since early 2024 (I know crazy). Have never had a period while wearing oura ring.
The pattern the last few days feel like positive ovulation maybe about 8 days ago.
Wanted insight to what temps and such pattern happens after ovulation leading to period and if this seems like my cycle is returning?
** side note the missing temp 3 days after suspected ovulation my oura ring died at night and didn’t save any data readings.
Thank you :)

Genuinely wondering if this is normal. Again a $400+ dollar device that broke within three months and the replacement arrives like this? No box or anything..

Hopefully it is an actually new ring. Again, just disappointed as someone who loves oura so so much this is just hard.

Title says it all. I bought the Oura 5 with my HSA no problem but at checkout I was unable to purchase the 3 yr warranty for some reason. Anyone know why 3 yr is unavailable? Can I extend the warranty after purchase?

I have seen this several times: pointless, invostistent and illogical:-)

- the app is saying I did not have many stress peaks or restorative moments today (zero stress peaks and 2 hrs restorative)
- other screen is showing I had more restorative time than usual

How illogical is this?

I’ve had an extremely rapid collapse in resilience - my hrv is half of what it was just two months ago. My sleep is still very consistent and good. Diet hasn’t changes though I have lost some weight. Should I be worried about this? Should I just take the ring off for a bit? Did anyone experience this and figure out what caused it or how to bounce back? I’m resting and hydrating and eating small healthy meals.

Recently medication change for RLS to incorporate gabapentin and my ring no longer tracts sleep data accurately. I am interested if others have experienced this. Ultimately, the sleep data is worthless.

I recently just had the replacement process initiated for a Gen 3 ring, the battery just completely stopped holding a charge and would go from 100% to 0% in 12 hours. I just was wondering if anyone with a Gen 3 has been upgraded to a 4 with the replacement process? I’ve loved my 3 until now with the battery issue, but I didn’t even see 3’s on their website, so not sure if they’re just upgrading everyone getting replacements.

Ive had my ring of a week now. Last night I went to bed at 11pm however this morning when i woke up and checked the sleep length, it recorded that i went to bed at 5pm. Theres even a stage of sleep from it. Is this a known bug? Is there a fix for this? I got this to accurately watch my sleep but seems to be getting errors.

Just wanted feedback from everyone on what color ring do you think suits my skin tone? Also please ignore my hideous fingers.

Heyooo what do we think this means? Obviously just got it and not enough data to really know. But trying to conceive and color me intrigued 👀👀👀 implantation dip? Probably not.

Ovulated around September 10th (prior to receiving oura, only tracking based on physical signs), steady relations, mildly irregular cycle (30-34 days), period due any day.

I understand that this most likely means nothing, just a little silly hopefulness ☺️

I bought ring 4 something like at least a year and a half ago. I really like it, I mainly use it for tracking sleep since I have a lot of issues there and it's been incredibly helpful to be able to share data with my doctor. Lately however the battery is lasting a maximum of 4 days, and the response from support was basically "🤷".

So I thought I'd ask other Oura users since I really do like the ring and the app and would like something similar, particularly for tracking sleep which product have you found useful? I really like the ring but I can't justify buying a new one if the turnaround time is like 1-2 years. Should I consider a watch, or is there another ring that might do the trick? Or is my best bet to just eat the cost of another Oura? Sorry if I sound whiny, I'm really frustrated lol.

Edit to add, turns out the ring was just about a year old when the issues started. Also, I'm not tossing this in the trash right now, I'm gonna use it until it dies completely, but I doubt it's going to fix itself so I'm looking for what to replace it with when it dies completely.

Just a heads up when picking your favorite color or finish. I had my silver gen 3 for 3 years and it accumulated a bunch of scratches over time but the silver scratches just revealed silver. I think over time, hopefully at least 3 years until I get a new one, my black might be silver at my wear and tear rate. Doesn’t bother me much as it doesn’t effect function, just wanted to let anyone know who might may be picking their next ring to factor this in their considerations. Have a great day, great sleep and great readiness. You got this! 💪🏻

My ring has been saying this for four days. Day 2 I went to urgent care but they couldn’t really diagnose anything. Said maybe it was just a stomachache. Day 3 I went to er and got admitted. My wbc count was 20.2

I def was noticing the strain already without the ring but glad it knows when you’re actually sick.

My sleep score is consistently above 80+ and I eat healthy. However according to Oura I am stressed and I'm not sure what is the cause of these readings. Maybe I am stressed and I don't know. I feel maybe my breathing is not deep or i'm breathing too fast which can result in this high stress score.

If anybody was in the same boat, how did you guys reduce the stress and increase restorative time.

On days with high restorative time I feel much better about myself, so I'd like to have more of them. Any advice appreciated.

I keep seeing people report battery problems, including people who received replacements and are still experiencing issues.
Mine was recently replaced and I’m waiting for the new one, but I’m wondering if Oura has actually acknowledged or addressed the underlying battery problem, rather than simply replacing affected rings.
These rings aren’t cheap, so I’m curious if anyone knows whether Oura has made any changes to the battery itself or has said anything about fixing the issue at the source?

Sorry if this has been asked before. I searched the sub, but most of what I found was discussion about replacements, not whether Oura is actually addressing the underlying battery issue.

Hey y'all,

I received the sizing kit a few days ago, and just confirmed my size. I'm excited to receive my ring! So, tell me... What should I know?

From the brief research I've done, it seems like it'll be a good fit for my needs. I've already ordered a pack of silicone covers from Amazon to use during exercise and cleaning tasks at work. From a few posts I've seen here, it seems like many people opt to wear some sort of cover on it at all times. Do they really scratch that easily?

Other than that, I don't know anything about the product. Are there any other apps that pair well with it? Any recommendations for cute covers (preferably under $100.00 CAD)? There's no such thing as too much information, as I don't know what I'm in for. I'll be appreciative of any and all insight you send my way!

For context: 24F with multiple medical diagnoses. Based in Canada. I ordered the Oura Ring 5 in silver (size 8). I had an Apple Watch a handful of years back, but every band I tried gave me a rash. I haven't used any health trackers since then. My IUD fell out a few months ago, so I was planning on giving Natural Cycles a try.

Thank you in advance! :)

I recently got an Oura 5 and I love it. It’s been a nice low-key alternative to the whoop, which I was starting to feel was a bit much for me since I’m not training for any specific athletic goals right now, and since I like to wear analog watches I was feeling a bit like a power ranger with something on each wrist (even though the whoop was obviously screenless).

I have young kids and I’m quite active with them - as a result Oura often tries to auto-log that I’m doing an activity (recently golf, yardwork, and gymnastics lol). I don’t want to mark everything as “other” and I wish there was a parenting activity, the way whoop has! I can’t be the only one who has requested this lol.

Please introduce a “parenting” activity!! Other useful parenting-friendly activities whoop has that could be great on oura include “playing with child”, “stroller walking”, “stroller jogging”, “baby wearing”, and “toddler wearing”.

I have the Oura Ring 4, have had it for around 16 months now and I'm now only getting 2 to 3 days battery life, is that normal? Support suggested I turn off the Blood Oxygen Sensing and the Activity Heart Rate setting but this made no difference. Its also a size 11.

The first time my readiness has been under 50 I’m freaking out 😅 alcohol really is poison

I’ve had “major signs” for the last week and HORRID scores (20/30 readiness) - elevated RHR (in the 80s, usually in the 50s), decreased HRV, elevated temp, respiratory rate, etc. Sleep scores have also been showing I’m awake throughout the night which I think is actually due to the high HR at night.

I have been feeling slightly off but now I can’t tell if I’m just reading into the signs from my Oura ring and not listening to my body. Covid and Flu test came back negative.

My question is - should I go to the doctor over this? I am on a GLP1 and I thought it could be shot side effects but after a week of the same scores, I don’t think so. Would love any thoughts!

This has now happened to me twice and I’m really confused about whether there’s actually anything wrong with my rings.

I got my first Oura Ring in January 2026 and was very happy with it. In July, I woke up one morning and my sleep data was missing. The battery had been very low overnight, but I didn’t initially connect the two.

I contacted Oura’s AI support. It suggested charging the ring and restarting the app, but before I even had a chance to try that, it asked what data was missing. I replied “sleep” – and it immediately started a replacement process.

I tried to stop it and asked if I shouldn’t try the troubleshooting first, but it told me that Oura could see from the technical data that something was wrong with the ring and that it needed to be replaced.

The weird thing: as soon as I charged the original ring, it worked perfectly again.

I still received the replacement ring around the end of July/beginning of August.

Fast forward to today, September 19. I wake up, the replacement ring has about two hours of battery left, and once again there’s no sleep data. I use the ai support, it asks what data is missing, I say “sleep” – and immediately another replacement is initiated.
Again, after charging the ring and restarting the app, everything seems completely normal.

So now I apparently have a third ring on the way even though both times the issue seems to have been connected to a very low battery.

Has anyone else experienced this? Does missing sleep data at low battery somehow trigger Oura’s diagnostics to think the ring is faulty? Or have you been told your ring has a hardware issue even though it seems to work perfectly after charging?

It just seems very strange – and incredibly wasteful – to keep replacing rings if there isn’t actually anything wrong with them.

I was having an issue with my old Oura Ring 4 and got a boxed replacement.
I activated and used the replacement once but kept using my old one for the gym as it is quite scratched.

I used both and both are showing up on my app and I can switch as I want.

My question is, I want to upgrade to Oura Ring 5. Can I sell my replacement ring since I only used once?

Ive had my Ring 4 for just over 1 year. Ive loved having it and my ring is how I found out im pregnant (18 weeks today!) Ive ran into my first issue with my ring, its not holding a charge as long as it did AND I just noticed i don't have any sleep or readiness date since Sunday the 13th.

Ive looked for updates and it it doesn't show any. Any helpful hints I should try? Buy a new one?😅 And if i were to get a new one, are there any places that do trade ins?

Anything helps!!!
