INSTRUCTION MANUAL
I. WHAT IS A BASAL TEMPERATURE?
A basal temperature is the normal body temperature of a healthy person at rest. For optimum accuracy, your basal temperature should be taken
at the same time every morning upon waking. Changes in basal temperature are related to changes in the female reproductive cycle. By taking
your basal temperature daily and charting it, you can notice slight changes and patterns. Charting of your basal temperature, in addition
to other information, can help you understand your menstrual cycle and ovulation. Temperatures typically rise (about 1.0ºF (0.6ºC)
within a day or so after ovulation, and are the result of heat-inducing hormone, progesterone. Recording and interpreting basal
temperature changes is called the
“Basal Temperature Method” (BTM).
The Basal Temperature Method can be used to help in family planning. Charting of temperature and prediction of ovulation can be used
to time sexual intercourse during fertile days to aid in increasing the likelihood of pregnancy.
