Does a woman’s body temperature rise during menstruation?

　　With the development of modern medicine, many female Begin to treat yourself healthy The situation has generated growing concern. The female menstrual cycle is an important physiological function of the female body, and body temperature is also a parameter that changes significantly during the menstrual cycle. Therefore, here we will discuss in detail whether the body temperature of women will increase during menstruation.

　　First, we need to understand what a normal woman’s menstrual cycle looks like. Generally speaking, the length of a normal menstrual cycle is between 28 and 35 days, with the average cycle being 28 days. The menstrual cycle usually consists of three phases: the menstrual phase, the follicular phase, and the luteal phase. The menstrual period generally refers to the first three days of the menstrual period, that is, Uterus The time when the endometrium is shed and expelled from the uterus. At this time, the woman's body temperature is lower.； The follicular phase generally refers to the 10 days after the end of the menstrual period, when a woman’s body temperature is relatively low but elevated. ； The luteal phase generally refers to the 14 days after ovulation, when a woman's body temperature will rise significantly. The three phases last for one cycle in total before entering the menstrual phase of the next cycle.

　　Next, let’s answer the question posed at the beginning of this article: Does a woman’s body temperature rise during menstruation? The answer is no. On the contrary, the body temperature of women during menstruation is lower. This is because during the menstrual period, the endometrium sheds and the endocrine environment shows a downward trend, resulting in little change in body temperature.

　　However, it should be noted that under normal circumstances, that is, under the influence of special events such as never giving birth, women's body temperature changes less during menstruation, while body temperature changes are more likely to occur in the follicular phase and luteal phase after menstruation. Normally, women during their childbearing years should measure their body temperature regularly to understand their menstrual cycle. For some women, there are changes in physical status during the cycle, such as weight changes, mood swings, increased appetite, etc. These can also become reference indicators of cycle changes.

　　To sum up, we can conclude that under normal circumstances, women’s body temperature does not rise during menstruation. There are certain differences in each woman's menstrual cycle. We should pay attention to our own cycle changes and make certain records and observations to better understand and maintain our own health.
