In S1601, the subject selects acquisition of health advice data 1203 from the list of various services shown in FIG. The flow from 1602 to 1606 is the same as the flow from 1302 to 1306 in FIG.

In S1607, server 101 transmits the decrypted basal body temperature data to health advice analysis software. After the transmission, the decoded basal body temperature data is not left in the area indicated by 403 in FIG. In S1607, the server 101 analyzes the decrypted basal body temperature data using health advice analysis software. In step S1609, the server 101 determines whether there is a change or abnormality in the physical condition based on the result analyzed by the health advice analysis software. Normally, the health advice data is sent to the subject (S1610). However, if any change or abnormality such as a sign of pregnancy is found in the body as a result of the analysis, the URL of the hospital list 406 is added to the subject along with the health advice data. (S1611). The subject who has received the URL of the hospital list 406 can further receive a hospital introduction service and a hospital reservation service described later. After transmitting the data, the decrypted basal body temperature data and the health advice data are deleted from the server 101. When the health advice data is sent to the subject, the subject is asked whether or not to acquire another service. When the server recognizes the acquisition of the other service, the various service lists in FIG. 12 are displayed again. If not, the service system ends.
