The gestational wheel calculator of the current invention greatly extends the function and usefulness of the basic gestational calculation wheel by providing increased accuracy of gestational dates by using an average cycle length adjuster, provides paternity information using a sperm exposure marker, provides more accurate ultrasound and other test measurements by using scales printed parallel to gestational age, and provide a means of accurately aligning these measurements with the proper calendar or gestational date by including a transparent marker arm. In addition, normal range and error functions are included on the marker arm. A one-fourth year window is used to increase the surface area of information available for viewing charts, tables, and promotions on the underlying base plate. Easier reading of the calculator is provided by special markers for the first day of each calendar month and by providing sub-marks for each day within a gestational week. Scheduling conflicts are improved by providing a weekday scale covering the entire nine month duration of pregnancy. The other side of the gestational wheel can be used to provide additional promotional or informational items including rotating transparent windows to display additional surface area, to provide means of calculating algorithm solutions for body mass index, and display observational data for EFW, delta OD 450, and AFI.

A method and device to predict ovulation in a female human by measuring changes in the concentration of a number of ions in eccrine sweat is disclosed. The concentration, or changes in concentration, of one or more ions are determined throughout the day and analyzed against predetermined patterns in order to predict ovulation one to five days in advance. This permits the user to more accurately determine commencement of the fertile phase, which for female humans is generally considered to be about four days prior to ovulation to one day after ovulation. The concentration of the ions measured include sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), ammonium (NH₄+), calcium (Ca₂+), chloride (Cl−) and nitrate (NO₃−). To further increase the accuracy of the reading, a large number of readings can be obtained throughout a day and statistically analyzed to determine the change over time. In addition, the concentration of two or more ions can be obtained to increase accuracy. Ratiometric measurements between two or more ions can be determined to increase accuracy and account for ion accumulation on the skin. Ratiometric measurements between ammonium (NH₄+) and calcium (Ca₂+) have been found to provide more distinct patterns because the concentration of these two ions change in opposite directions during the relevant period preceding ovulation.

A dose counter is described. The dose counter may be used, for instance, in a medical inhaler device.
