Re: ovulation and averate temperature graph

January 26, 2008

I think my answer below already answers your question. If you have a

cycle, your temps will vary depending on the time of the month. You

still want to take them every day though, because there should be

times when they will be within .2 day to day for awhile both before

and after ovulation. I think the 98.6 goal only works for men and

women without cycles. My husband's graph has absolutely no rhythm,

mine has a definite up and down cycle.

After looking at several websites, I believe a good average basal

would be between 97.0-98.3, and a good daily average would be between

97.9-98.8. Again, these are average ranges, and just like thyroid

ranges, some of us will be higher and some will be lower, but that

might be a healthy temp for you. Use other symptoms like cold

hands/feet, hair loss, blood labs, saliva labs, BP, weight, and just

how you look and feel in general to help determine if you're getting

better or worse.
