What is the normal oral temperature of a pregnant woman?

From the beginning of pregnancy, pregnant women have made various changes in their daily lives, such as how to eat best and how to arrange their sleeping schedules. They always hope to do everything well just to give the baby in their belly the best care. Many things, even small changes in body temperature, are of particular concern to pregnant women, for fear that they may accidentally make the fetus uncomfortable. What is the normal oral temperature of a pregnant woman?

A woman's body temperature will rise after pregnancy, but the temperature increase is between 36.9℃-37.2℃, which is a normal reaction. If this high temperature period lasts for more than 21 days and there are no other abnormal reactions, no menstruation, and even early pregnancy reactions, it can generally be considered a sign of pregnancy. If the body temperature fluctuates, it should be taken seriously, especially for patients with habitual miscarriage, who should take timely measures.

The temperature change in early pregnancy is because progesterone has a warming effect, which can increase the body temperature by 0.3-0.4 degrees above normal. For example, women are supported by estrogen during and after menstruation, with a body temperature of 36.5. The body temperature is lowest during ovulation, and is supported by progesterone after ovulation and conception. The body temperature rises by 0.3-0.4 after pregnancy. Your body temperature will return to normal during the next menstrual period or the day before it.

After a woman becomes pregnant, her luteinizing hormone levels increase. Generally, the basal body temperature during the follicular phase is 36.5°C, and it rises by more than 0.5°C during the luteal phase, resulting in a biphasic performance, indicating ovulation. If the monophasic body temperature curve does not have a later increase, it indicates that there is no ovulation, with an accuracy rate of 70% to 80%.

The body temperature of pregnant women will indeed change after pregnancy. What kind of change and how big the change is are what pregnant women are concerned about. After reading the introduction above, everyone also knows what the oral temperature of pregnant women is generally. The body temperature of pregnant women will rise after pregnancy, but if the high temperature persists, it should be taken seriously as it may not be a normal physiological phenomenon.
