Ovulation is a special period during which many problems may arise. If you don't understand different questions, it's easy to feel anxious. So the more you know, the better it will be to solve it naturally. So what's going on with the temperature fluctuating between 37.5-38 during ovulation? What are the manifestations of ovulation period?
What's going on with the temperature fluctuating between 37.5-38 during ovulation
Basal body temperature is one of the good methods for calculating ovulation period, which requires measuring basal body temperature daily to determine ovulation period. Generally speaking, the first half of ovulation is characterized by low temperature, while the second half is characterized by high temperature. An increase in body temperature indicates normal completion of ovulation.
During the menstrual cycle, the basal body temperature before ovulation is usually low, around 36.4 to 36.6 degrees Celsius.
During ovulation, the body temperature slightly decreases, and after ovulation, the average body temperature increases by about 0.5 degrees, which is maintained until before menstruation begins to decline. The high temperature period lasts about 12-16 days (with an average of 14 days).
(1) If there is no pregnancy, the corpus luteum atrophy stops secreting progesterone, body temperature drops, returns to baseline, and menstruation begins.
(2) If pregnant, the corpus luteum continues to secrete progesterone due to the support of embryonic hormone secretion, resulting in sustained high body temperature.
(3) If the ovarian function is poor and there is no ovulation or corpus luteum formation, the body temperature will remain low.
Because everyone's basal body temperature is different, it is necessary to compare one's own basal body temperature. If it conforms to the rules, it is normal.
What are the manifestations of ovulation period
1. Decreased appetite: Studies have shown that women's appetite during ovulation is the lowest in a menstrual cycle, and experts point out that this is a natural instinct of humans that has been preserved to this day - female animals during ovulation tend to focus more on finding mates of the opposite sex rather than searching for food.
2. Vigorous energy: This is also a natural instinct inherited from humans. In order to successfully attract the opposite sex, women during ovulation will become radiant and love to express themselves.
3. High libido: Overall, women's sexual desire is particularly strong during ovulation, which is a manifestation of the highest physical signal that women hope to conceive.
4. Decreased resistance: During ovulation, a woman's vaginal mucus becomes thinner in order to make it easier for sperm to pass through and increase the chances of successful conception. At the same time, a woman's nasal mucus also decreases, increasing the chance of bacteria invading the human circulatory system.
5. Swelling of the anus or pain in one side of the lower abdomen: Mature eggs need to break through the follicles that wrap around the surface of the egg when they are released from the ovary. A small amount of fluid inside the follicles will flow into the lowest part of the pelvic cavity, and women may feel a slight downward sensation in the anus, as well as mild pain in one side of the lower abdomen.
The sudden rise and fall of body temperature is indeed a headache, after all, if the body temperature changes too abnormally, it can be very troublesome. Given that the human body is also easily overwhelmed, it is particularly important to understand these knowledge points. So I hope the above three points can better help everyone identify the cause. Better keep warm in winter.
