Normal body temperature for adult women

Everyone has an ovulation temperature. Once the normal body temperature is found to be abnormal, it will immediately cause illness. Many people may not take fever or cold seriously, but many people pay special attention to fever. So what is the normal body temperature? Next, let’s talk about what the normal human body temperature is!

What is the normal body temperature of a person?

Normal range: accurate measurement of time

Oral temperature: 35.5℃~37.4℃ for 3-5 minutes

Axillary temperature 35.0℃~37.0℃ for 5-10 minutes

Rectal temperature 36.2℃~37.9℃ for 3-5 minutes

Ear temperature 35.7℃~37.9℃1-15 seconds

Forehead temperature 35.0℃~37.0℃1-15 seconds

The temperature of the human body is relatively stable under normal physiological conditions, but the body temperature can change to a certain extent with factors such as day and night, gender, female menstrual cycle, age, working temperature, mental and physical activity.

1. The body temperature of an ordinary person fluctuates slightly within 24 hours, usually within 1°C. The body temperature is slightly lower in the morning and slightly higher at noon.

2. The average body temperature of women is about 0.3℃ higher than that of men.

3. The impact of women’s menstrual cycle on body temperature. The body temperature level of adult women with ovulation fluctuates with the menstrual cycle, and the body temperature after ovulation is slightly higher than that before ovulation. Measuring the body temperature during ovulation (taking oral temperature when waking up in the morning, but not waking up) found that the body temperature was higher before menstruation, and at the same time as menarche, the body temperature dropped by about 0.2-0.3℃. During ovulation, the body temperature dropped another 0.2℃, and then rose suddenly. In clinical medicine, the body temperature of adult women during their ovulation period can be measured continuously and regularly to detect whether they ovulate and the time of ovulation. The regular rise and fall of women's body temperature is related to the levels of estrogen and metabolic substances in the blood.

4. The impact of age and working temperature on human body temperature. The immune system of infants is not fully developed, the metabolism of the elderly is weak, the body temperature is lower than that of young people, the ability to compensate for changes in external temperature is reduced, and they cannot tolerate the stimulation of drastic changes in the external environment. Therefore, the body temperature of infants is slightly higher than that of adults by 1°C in summer; the body temperature of the elderly in winter is as low as 1°C lower than that of young people.

5. The body temperature after exercising or eating is slightly higher than when resting. Muscle activity can significantly increase heat production, causing body temperature to rise. Stress, anxiety and emotional excitement can also increase body temperature. In some cases of anxiety, the body temperature can rise to 2°C.
