Low BBT in folicular hase

NN30 · 12/06/2023 11:58

Hey!

Just wondering if anyone has any advice or history with a low BBT? I have PCOS and had our first baby via IVF. However we are back to now trying naturally as our most recent round of IVF failed. My temp this month so far seems to be averaging around 37.75 ish. I havent ovulated yet and i am only on cycle day 12, however i have had up to 60 day cycles before so who knows how long i will be waiting!

I cant seem to find much about why my temperature could be this low? I assume its to do with hormones, but having looked at other charts i know mine is clearly below average.

If anyone has any advice please let me know :).

I am taking Myo-inistol, Vit D, Vit B12, Folic Acid.

Thank you!

That is high. Do you measure orally or vaginally? I track vaginally and my pre ovulation temp is 36.3 and after ovulation 36.7-.8.

Sorry! Correction, 35.75

Sorry I meant 35.75! Not 37!

@NN30 from what I found on internet below 36 could indicate low thyroid activity but it’s most likely nothing to worry about. Mine has dropped as low as 35.9 and there are a lot of things affecting bbt.

Yes I have read this too but my thyroid is fine as I have had this checked. Which is why I am confused by what it could be! I think I’m just assuming that it’s a bad thing I guess from others charts!

@NN30 If you had it checked then you’re fine. There was a girl on here with temps lower than 35.

Yeah that's normal.
I also have pcos :( and I'm on my second month of clomid . First month I had confirmed ovulation via bloods and during that month my temps were always 35. something all the time up until ovulation and then it had risen above 36

OneHundredOtters · 12/06/2023 23:09

Mines often 35. Something goes up to 36.7ish after ovulation. I think it's pretty normal fluctuations

My BBT (oral) is always between 35.8-36.1 pre ov then shoots up to 36.4-36.6. Stays high then goes back to 36.1 and I know AF will start that day.

Thanks everyone for reassuring me it seems to be normal for some! After ovulation it does go up to 36 xx
