Is it normal to have a low-grade fever during ovulation?

Low-grade fever during ovulation refers to the phenomenon that a woman's body temperature rises slightly during ovulation. Typically, a woman's body temperature is lowest in the early morning and rises in the afternoon or evening. This increase in body temperature is called "basal body temperature increase." During ovulation, a woman's body temperature will rise by 0.5 to 1 degree Celsius, which is a normal physiological phenomenon.

Some people may experience a low-grade fever during ovulation, but not all people experience this. Some people may have no symptoms, while others may experience mild discomfort, such as headaches, muscle aches, and fatigue. However, for some people, this low-grade fever may be accompanied by other symptoms, such as chills, sweating, headache, and nausea.

If a woman develops a low-grade fever during ovulation and is accompanied by other symptoms, she should seek medical attention promptly. The doctor may ask about symptoms and take your temperature to determine if other health problems are present. If a woman has a low-grade fever that lasts longer or is accompanied by other symptoms during ovulation, her doctor may recommend additional tests, such as blood tests and imaging tests, to determine whether other medical conditions are present.
