Body temperature and ovulation

There are many ways to know when ovulation occurs. Female friends can calculate it based on the menstrual period, or they can judge it based on the female body temperature. Body temperature and ovulation_There is an obvious change in body temperature on the day of ovulation, which can only be observed by female friends who monitor and measure their own body temperature. Here I will introduce to you how to observe your body temperature and any changes in body temperature during ovulation.

1. How to measure body temperature during ovulation

Many people don’t know their ovulation period. In fact, you only need to measure your body temperature to find out your ovulation period. Before getting up every morning, the woman should measure her basal body temperature with a thermometer. On the basis of daily measurement, grasp the time when body temperature drops and rises again to determine the date of ovulation.

2. The method for measuring basal body temperature is as follows:

After waking up in the morning, measure your oral temperature with a thermometer without moving your body.

Mark the measured temperature on the basal body temperature chart.

Use a line to connect the body temperature data for a month to form a curve, and use this curve to determine whether it is the ovulation period.

3. What is the body temperature during ovulation?

What is the body temperature during ovulation? The menstrual cycle is regular, with each cycle lasting 28-30 days. Ovulation usually occurs about 14 days before the next menstruation. The ovulation period is within 10 days between 5 days before ovulation and 4 days after ovulation, which is also the fertile period. During the menstrual cycle, the basal body temperature before ovulation is often lower. Normally, the body temperature before getting up in the morning (i.e., basal body temperature) is below 37 degrees, approximately 36.4-36.6 degrees. The body temperature drops slightly during ovulation, and rises by an average of about 0.5 degrees after ovulation, and remains at this level until before menstruation, when it begins to drop and then returns to the original body temperature level.

4. What are the changes in body temperature during ovulation?

The body temperature changes during ovulation. Under normal circumstances, a woman's basal body temperature is lower before ovulation and rises after ovulation. Because, when the corpus luteum is formed after ovulation and the secretion of more progesterone stimulates the temperature regulation center of the hypothalamus, causing the basal body temperature to rise, and it will continue until the next menstruation before it starts to drop. Therefore, when the body temperature rises from a low level (increases by more than 0.3 degrees Celsius), it means that ovulation has been completed.

The low temperature period lasts about two weeks from the onset of menstruation to the ovulation day; the body temperature rises by 0.3-0.5℃ from the ovulation day to the next menstruation day, and the high temperature period also lasts about two weeks.

Everyone should learn how to measure basal body temperature. The method of measuring basal body temperature is: After waking up every morning, do not get up, preferably at the same time period, and measure your body temperature with an oral temperature meter. Generally speaking, the body temperature is always around 36.5 before ovulation. The body temperature drops slightly during ovulation. After ovulation, the temperature rises to around 37 degrees, with an average increase of about 0.5 degrees, and continues until the next menstruation, and then returns to the original body temperature level. If you measure your basal body temperature for three consecutive menstrual cycles, you can estimate the ovulation date more accurately. In addition, measure your body temperature every day and record it on a paper form to observe changes in body temperature at any time.
