basal body temperature pregnancy
The basal body temperature method is a system in order to understanding of which is the ovulation day and therefore fertile period. The method is based on the measure of own temperature with a thermometer, day after day, and using the basal body temperature diagram . The basal body temperature diagram endures of the enough precise variations and in the ovulation days is lowered and it is raised clearly in way, allowing to understand that ovulation is in course and that it is the just moment for having complete relationships and hoping to begin the pregnancy. As the temperature must be measured necessary as an example to measure the temperature with the precision of the tenth one of degree (36,4), however all they make it the thermometers.
The temperature can be taken for oral way, vaginal way or rectal way. The vaginal way is considered as the best way to measuring it. Having to confront the temperature in the several days it is important to measure it (oral, vaginal or always in the same way rectal).
When to measure the temperature The corporea temperature goes always taken to the same hour to the mattino, as soon as waked up (or however after at least 4 hours of sleep continuative) and before raising themselves from the bed. Physical activities as to go in I bathe, to dress themselves, to make breakfast alter the temperature of those little that it can render the reading of the diagram difficult that will be designed. Therefore it is well to hold the thermometer on the bedside table. It can be begun to then take the temperature from the first days of the menstrual cycle making it day for day. Like designing the diagram of the temperature You can use a small check sheet.
You of it will serve one for every period between a menstrual cycle and successive during which you will want to control the temperature bases them. Every day you must bring back the temperature measured to the mattino as soon as waked up. Like reading the diagram of the temperature All’ beginning, in the following days the menstrual cycle, the temperature is stable, even if can be lowered and be raised. Measuring it for vaginal or rectal way is the best way to measure more correctly . Remembered that for rectal way the temperature is 0,5 degrees higher than that measured all’ armpit, therefore if exceeded little the 37 C like fever! To a sure point there will be a lowering and then an express raising: those are the days in which it happens l’ ovulation and therefore own fertile days and are the days in which you must have of the complete relationships for being able to remain pregnant.
