After getting married for a while, some couples may want to start preparing for pregnancy. Preparing for pregnancy is a big project that requires the joint efforts of both husband and wife. So, sometimes how can we quickly know if we are pregnant? Measuring the body temperature of pregnant women in the morning is one method. So, how much does taking a temperature in the morning indicate pregnancy?
After pregnancy, women's body temperature generally increases. If a pregnant woman measures her temperature in the morning and finds it between 36.9 ℃ and 37.2 ℃, and this temperature persists for more than 21 days without any other abnormal reactions, and there is still no menstruation, or even early pregnancy reactions such as nausea and vomiting, it can be basically considered that you are pregnant.
Why is an increase in body temperature in the morning a symbol of pregnancy for women? In the early stages of pregnancy, women preparing for pregnancy have progesterone in their bodies, which has a warming effect and can raise their body temperature by 0.3-0.4 ℃ compared to normal people. In addition, after pregnancy, women's luteinizing hormone will also increase, and their body temperature will rise to above 0.5 ℃. So in the early stages of pregnancy, it is normal for a woman's body temperature to rise. Pregnant women can infer whether they are pregnant by taking their body temperature every morning.
However, it should be noted that if pregnant women find that their body temperature is constantly fluctuating and they have abnormal reactions, they need to go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner to eliminate hidden dangers.
