Low basal body temperature after ovulation

Ovulation is a very important metabolic activity for women, because only when women can ovulate normally can they conceive normally and give birth to their own babies. Therefore, during the ovulation process, women need to pay close attention to various indicators of their bodies, especially their body temperature. Next, I will introduce you to the relevant knowledge about basal body temperature ovulation!

1. Basal body temperature ovulation

First of all, we need to know that the normal ovulation curve is a biphasic curve, in which the high temperature area and the low temperature area can be clearly seen. The temperature difference between the high temperature zone and the low temperature zone is generally between 0.3 degrees and 0.5 degrees.

Generally speaking, the ovulation day is the day when your basal body temperature is the lowest. Before ovulation, a woman's adrenal glands secrete a small amount of progesterone, causing her basal body temperature to be low, at around 36.2 degrees. When a woman ovulates, the estrogen level in her body will drop significantly due to the rupture of the follicle, resulting in a lower body temperature. After ovulation, the corpus luteum will secrete a large amount of progesterone and estrogen, and the body temperature will rise sharply, which will occur within 24 to 48 hours after ovulation.

Although there are no special circumstances where the day with the lowest basal body temperature is the ovulation day, there are special circumstances where the basal body temperature may be affected by the ambient temperature and there may be errors.

2. Methods of monitoring ovulation

1.Basal body temperature method. First, prepare a thermometer. Before going to bed, be sure to swing the mercury column on the thermometer to below normal body temperature and place it where you can easily reach it. After waking up in the morning, you need to immediately place the thermometer under your tongue for about five minutes, and then record the specific body temperature.

2. Ovulation test paper. Do not drink water for two hours before the test. It is best to test urine between 10 am and 8 pm, and then start testing on the tenth day of menstruation. As the color deepens, you need to increase the frequency so that you can capture the strong yang and find the correct ovulation time.

3. Ovulation pain. This is a symptom of ovulation in women. When ovulation occurs, ovulation pain also occurs. Of course, you can't rely solely on this pain to determine the ovulation day.

3. Does low basal body temperature affect ovulation?

If during the monitoring process, the body temperature remains very low, with no high temperature period, and no bidirectional changes in high and low temperatures, then you really have to be careful, because it may be because there are no signs of ovulation. The principle of the basal body temperature curve is actually that the high and low levels of the body temperature occur under the influence of the progesterone hormone produced by the ovaries after ovulation. The body temperature will rise after ovulation. If there is no change in high or low temperature, one possibility is that ovulation has not occurred, and another possibility is that you are pregnant.

But in general, if the temperature remains high for a long time, it is very likely that you are pregnant, and if the temperature remains low for a long time, the possibility of pregnancy is very low. If the sisters' basal body temperature has not fluctuated for a long time, the most likely possibility is that they are not ovulating. At this time, you can go to the hospital for examination and get the right medicine.
