Does body temperature rise before and after menstruation?

The normal body temperature of women is generally about 0.2 degrees higher than that of men. Generally speaking, if measured by armpit temperature, the normal body temperature of women is between 36 and 17.3 degrees. It can rise by about 0.3 degrees during ovulation. Under normal circumstances, the body temperature fluctuates during the day, but the fluctuation range will not exceed 1 degree. Let’s discuss whether the human body temperature will rise before and after menstruation?

Generally speaking, a woman's body temperature rises before menstruation. This is because under normal circumstances, when there is an ovulation period, before ovulation, the body temperature is relatively low, and after ovulation, the body temperature will rise by about 0.3 to 0.5 degrees Celsius.

Generally it is above 36.8 degrees Celsius, most of the time it will be around 37 degrees Celsius, but it will not exceed 37.5 degrees Celsius. This high temperature situation will last about 12 days. With the contraction of progesterone, the body temperature will drop by 0.3 to 0.5 degrees Celsius during ovulation, and menstruation will come within 24 hours of the drop. Therefore, the body temperature rises before menstruation, and the bidirectionality of body temperature during ovulation indicates that there is an ovulation period.

From the beginning of menstruation to ovulation, the body temperature is not easy to rise during the ovulation period. Only after ovulation, the production of progesterone will cause the body temperature during the ovulation period to rise by 0.3-0.5 degrees on the original basis, generally above 36.8 degrees, and most of the time around 37 degrees. This high temperature state usually lasts about 12 days. With the contraction of the corpus luteum, the body temperature drops during ovulation, and menstruation will come within 24 hours after the body temperature drops. If the high temperature lasts less than 12 days, it means that the corpus luteum function is insufficient. If the high temperature lasts for more than 15 days, the possibility of pregnancy is quite high.

A woman's body temperature during ovulation varies with the physiological cycle. The body temperature is lower during the follicular phase, is lowest during ovulation, and rises by 0.3~0.6℃ after ovulation. The body temperature generally fluctuates between 36.5 and 37.0 before menstruation. If you are pregnant, your body temperature will continue to remain high. If your body temperature drops, you will have your period.
