Patient Questions, Answered

  • Your privacy matters to us. Connura stores your blood pressure readings and pregnancy information on your device, and nothing is shared with anyone unless you choose to share it with a PDF report.

    When you use Connura to generate a report for your care team, you decide who sees it and when.

    Connura does not sell or share your data with advertisers.

    Your health information belongs to you.

  • Connura offers monthly and annual plans to fit your needs — the annual plan gives you the best value. We're committed to keeping Connura accessible because we believe cost shouldn't be a barrier to better care during pregnancy.

    Your subscription covers everything Connura provides: pregnancy-specific blood pressure tracking, personalized guidance based on targets you set with your provider, trend visualization, and PDF reports you can share with your care team.

    Connura is continuously updated with the latest clinical guidelines, so your experience improves over time.

    If cost is a concern, reach out to our team - we want to make sure Connura is available to every woman who needs it.

  • You don't need any special equipment.

    Connura works with any validated upper-arm cuff — you enter your readings manually in the app.

    Wrist monitors are less accurate during pregnancy, so an upper-arm cuff is recommended. If you're not sure which one to get, your care team can suggest one.

  • Talk with your care team about when home monitoring makes sense for you.

    Some women start using Connura after a provider notices elevated readings at an appointment. Others begin earlier as a routine part of their pregnancy care.

    If your provider has asked you to track your blood pressure at home, Connura is ready when you are — setup only takes a few minutes.

  • Your care team will tell you how often to check based on your situation.

    Some women check once a day, others twice. Connura helps you follow whatever schedule your provider recommends and shows you patterns over time — so you're not just seeing individual numbers, you're seeing the bigger picture.

    If you're not sure what's right for you, that's a great question to ask at your next appointment.

  • Connura lets you generate a PDF report of your readings that you can share with your care team — by email, through your patient portal, or printed out for your next visit.

    This means you arrive at appointments with organized data instead of trying to remember numbers.

    Your provider won't automatically see your Connura readings unless you share the report, so you're always in control of your information.

  • Connura is not a diagnostic tool — it doesn't diagnose conditions or replace your provider's judgment.

    What Connura does is help you understand whether a reading falls within the target range you've set with your care team, and guide you on appropriate next steps.

    Think of Connura as the interpretation layer between your readings and understanding what to do — so you can have better, more informed conversations with your provider.

  • Most blood pressure apps are built for the general population.

    They use thresholds like 130/80 that don't account for how pregnancy changes your body.

    Connura was built specifically for pregnancy. We use pregnancy-specific thresholds aligned with clinical guidelines from ACOG, we account for where you are in your pregnancy, and Connura continues supporting you through postpartum — because monitoring doesn't stop when delivery does. Connura also helps you generate provider-ready reports your care team can actually use.

  • Yes, and this matters more than most women realize.

    Blood pressure complications can develop in the weeks after delivery — not just during pregnancy. Connura supports you through the full postpartum period because your health doesn't pause at delivery.

    Your care team may adjust your targets after birth, and Connura adapts with you — same guidance, same connection to your care, through the critical first six weeks and beyond.

  • You can share your Connura PDF report with anyone you choose — your partner, a family member, a doula, or your care team.

    Connura puts you in control of who sees your data and when. Some women find it helpful to share Connura reports with a support person who can help watch for patterns or remember to follow up.

  • Connura was designed on clinical guidelines from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG).

    It is designed to support — not replace — the care your provider gives you.

    Many providers appreciate when patients arrive with organized blood pressure data from Connura because it leads to more productive conversations and better decisions together. Share Connura with your care team so you can set personalized targets together.

  • Connura can still help you track your readings and understand what your numbers mean based on established pregnancy guidelines.

    If you're looking for prenatal care, your local health department or community health center can help connect you. In the meantime, Connura gives you useful information to bring to your first appointment — organized data and context that helps any new provider understand your situation quickly.

    If you ever see a reading of 160/110 or higher, or have symptoms like severe headache or vision changes, go to your nearest emergency room.

    You don't need an established provider for urgent care.
