What is your basal body temperature after ovulation?

Ovulation can be effectively predicted by measuring basal body temperature, and this method is simple and effective. Because women's basal body temperature fluctuates before, during and after ovulation. Before ovulation, a woman's basal body temperature tends to fluctuate below 36.6°C. After ovulation, a woman's basal body temperature will rise by about 0.3 to 0.5 degrees Celsius. About 1 to 2 days before a woman's menstruation, her basal body temperature will slowly drop.

That is to say, under normal circumstances, 36.6℃ is a dividing line. The basal body temperature is below 36.6℃ before ovulation, and it is maintained above 36.6℃ after ovulation. The basal body temperature begins to drop during menstruation. This is a cyclical process. The reason why a woman's basal body temperature rises after ovulation is because the corpus luteum is gradually formed after ovulation, and Astragalus can secrete progesterone. Since progesterone has the function of stimulating the nervous system and causing the body temperature to rise, the body temperature rises after ovulation.

If female friends are interested, they can measure their body temperature every day. If they find that their temperature on a certain day of a month is the lowest in that month, then this day is very likely to be the date closest to the ovulation period. If the temperature is relatively high on a certain day in a month, it means that the ovulation period has ended, and the days after this day of the month are relatively safe.

Although it is possible to determine the days before and after ovulation based on the measurement of basal body temperature, this method of judgment is often inaccurate. Therefore, if you want to use this method of body temperature measurement to calculate the safe period to achieve the purpose of contraception, it may not be reliable. The most effective way is to wear a condom during sexual intercourse. Condoms not only have a contraceptive effect, but also have a certain preventive effect on many gynecological diseases.
