Getting Started

To help you arrive at an accurate reading you will need to be recording your temperature regularly using a chart so that your average daily temperature can be ascertained accurately.

Try to ensure it is the very first thing you are doing moving as little as practical before hand as every movement boosts your body's temperature.

Observing Temperature Changes

Before you ovulate, your body's basal temperature (the minimum temperature in a 24 hour period) spans from 97.0-97.5 degrees fahrenheit or 36.1 to 36.3 celcius. (Follicular Phase).

After ovulation, hormonal fluctuations result in a increase in body's temperature as much as and somewhere between 97.6 to 98.9 F or 36.4 to 36.6 C. (Luteal Phase).

The day after ovulation the temperature commonly rises a further 0.2 degrees F or 0.11 degrees C , and temperatures remaining elevated 10-16 days, returning back to normal when there's no pregnancy, or remains elevated for 18 days and longer. In this case, it is best to check out for a positive pregnancy test.
