Is it normal to have a temperature of 37.2 during ovulation?

There are many ways to detect ovulation, the most common ones are the menstrual cycle calculation method, ovulation test paper measurement method, body temperature change prediction method, etc. These methods are relatively accurate. Generally speaking, the body temperature of all normal people is around 37 degrees. So, is a body temperature of 37.2 during ovulation normal?

When the body is in a state of complete rest, free from the influence of spirit or all kinds of factors, the measured body temperature is called ovulation temperature. The body temperature is measured when you wake up at 6-7 am and not when you wake up and move around. The body temperature during ovulation can more accurately reflect the role of the uterus and ovaries during ovulation and the corresponding endocrine changes. Therefore, it is a simple and reasonable self-detection method to measure ovulation period. If the daily life is irregular, and there are women who often work late shifts, it is not reliable to use ovulation temperature to measure ovulation for safe period contraception. Since ovulation temperature requires regular and specific testing under normal living habits, it itself is only an indirect method to estimate ovulation. If the body temperature is not measured accurately, it is even more impossible to calculate the ovulation period by the body temperature.

What changes occur in body temperature during the ovulation period in the menstrual cycle? The period before ovulation is the follicle period, and the uterus and ovaries secrete estrogen. During the ovulation period, the body temperature is mostly passive and is below 36.6℃. After ovulation, progesterone is produced in the uterus and ovaries, and progesterone metabolizes estrogen. Estrogen has a thermoregulatory effect on the central nervous system, raising the basal body temperature by 0.3-0.5°C. The rise in body temperature continues until 1-2 days before the onset of menstruation, when it begins to drop. In this way, the change of ovulation body temperature in a physiological cycle with ovulation shows a two-phase curve. The non-ovulation period may occur 2 to 3 days before and after the body temperature drops, that is, at any time when the body temperature begins to drop, drops to the lowest value or begins to warm up.

The above is a detailed introduction to whether a body temperature of 37.2 during ovulation is normal. In short, women will have certain body temperature changes during ovulation, but the changes will not be large. Female friends don't need to worry too much because of a small temperature difference. I hope this article can help everyone.
