What is a normal body temperature during ovulation?

Before determining whether an elevated body temperature is normal, we need to understand some basic common sense. First, the body temperature rises because the body is preparing for pregnancy and the embryo is about to form. When a woman enters the 14th day of her menstrual cycle, her body begins to produce large amounts of HCG (human choriocarcinoma hormone). This hormone causes an increase in body temperature, an important step in the body's preparation for pregnancy.

However, not all women experience elevated body temperatures the same. Some women may experience an increase in body temperature without showing signs of pregnancy. Additionally, some women may experience signs of pregnancy before or after their body temperature rises. Therefore, the method of determining whether an elevated body temperature is normal may be different for each woman.

Generally speaking, a rise in body temperature during a woman's cycle should be noticeable and last for at least a day. If an increase in body temperature occurs on cycle day 14 and lasts for at least one day, it may be a sign of pregnancy. In addition, women can also predict future body temperature changes by observing their own body temperature changes to better determine whether they are pregnant.
