What are the changes in body temperature before menstruation?

Menstruation is a unique physiological phenomenon for women, and healthy women's menstruation is also very regular. In principle, it is a cycle of 28 to 32 days. Many women will feel it before the menstruation comes, so they can prepare themselves. In addition, the body temperature before menstruation will also be different. So what changes will occur in body temperature before menstruation? Under normal circumstances, there is no change, but it will increase during ovulation.

1. What are the changes in body temperature before menstruation?

The body temperature will not rise during menstruation. However, body temperature changes during ovulation. Generally speaking, the body temperature is lower in the first half of the menstrual cycle, and even lower during the ovulation period. Then it gradually rises to a peak value (0.3 to 0.5 degrees Celsius higher than the basal body temperature) as the corpus luteum matures, and ovulation is possible.

The body temperature changes after pregnancy. The normal basal body temperature of women presents a two-way curve, that is, it is lower before ovulation and rises after ovulation. If there is no menstruation when the menstruation is due, the body temperature will not drop after the increase and will remain for more than 18 days, which means that the woman is pregnant. In general, the body temperature of women is a little low before menstruation, and will be significantly higher in the second half of the period.

2. What should you pay attention to during menstruation?

If you have not felt any discomfort in the recent period, then there is no need for treatment or conditioning. It is recommended that you pay more attention to personal hygiene during menstruation. It is best to use clean water to wash your vulva every day. You must pay more attention to diet conditioning at other times. You cannot eat raw, cold food during this period and need to eat more light food.

3. Normal body temperature during menstruation

The basal body temperature of menstruation with ovulation is bidirectional, that is, the body temperature is low in the first half of the menstruation and high in the second half. The body temperature before ovulation is generally 36.2-36.5 degrees, and the body temperature after ovulation increases by 0.3-0.5 degrees compared to before ovulation. That is about 36.8 degrees. For mature women, their basal body temperature is low from the end of menstruation to the beginning of ovulation, and drops to the lowest point again at the beginning of ovulation (some people do not drop), but only for one day. After that, the body temperature continues to rise to about 36.7 degrees until the beginning of menstruation.
