Ovulation temperature

The body temperature during ovulation is also a practical issue that pregnant women are more concerned about. The ovulation period can be calculated based on the body temperature during ovulation. The body temperature of women during ovulation is approximately between 36 and 36.6 degrees and 37 degrees. If the temperature rises, it means ovulation has occurred. After about two weeks of high temperature, the body temperature will drop back to normal during ovulation. The body temperature is mainly used for basic detection, which is a common phenomenon during ovulation.

Some common temperature tests during the ovulation period. During the ovulation period in daily life, the basal body temperature of women will rise as soon as they begin to ovulate. The high body temperature during the ovulation period is exactly at the turning point. At the same time, the ovulation period is mainly based on some self-tests to check one's own ovulation period for pregnancy and contraception.

When the human body is in a state of complete rest, free from mental or all objective interference, the measured body temperature is called basal body temperature. The basal body temperature is measured at 6-7 am when you wake up but have not yet gotten up to move around. It can more accurately reflect the ovarian ovulation function and corresponding endocrine changes. Therefore, it is a simple and effective means of self-monitoring to determine ovulation. What changes occur in basal body temperature during the menstrual cycle?

The follicular phase is before ovulation, during which the ovaries secrete estrogen and the basal body temperature is mostly passively kept below 36.6°C. After ovulation, a corpus luteum is formed in the ovary, which secretes progesterone. Progesterone has a thermogenic effect on the central nervous system, raising the basal body temperature by 0.3-0.5°C. The increase in body temperature continues until 1-2 days before the onset of menstruation and then begins to decline. In this way, the changes in basal body temperature during an ovulatory menstrual cycle present a biphasic curve.

Then non-ovulation may occur 2-3 days before or after the body temperature drops, that is, it may occur at any time when the body temperature starts to drop, reaches the lowest point or starts to rise. It is inferred that the date with the lowest body temperature may be the date closest to ovulation. On the 4th day when the high temperature occurs, ovulation must have occurred and the egg has died. It is safe to have sexual intercourse from this time until the next menstruation. Some basal body temperatures rise in steps, and it takes several days to reach the peak, which makes it difficult to calculate the exact time of ovulation.

For women who have irregular lifestyles and often work night shifts, using basal body temperature to measure ovulation is not very reliable. Because basal body temperature requires regular, fixed-point testing under a regular lifestyle, it is only an indirect way to estimate ovulation. If the body temperature is not measured accurately, it will be even more impossible to calculate the ovulation date based on the body temperature.

The above is the body temperature during ovulation. According to some changes in body temperature during ovulation, some common conception periods and some contraceptive periods are mainly checked based on body temperature. In daily life, you can perform some common ovulation examinations, and at the same time you will have a good understanding of your own body and ovulation period, and the common sense of conception and contraception.
