Variations on Basal Temperature Chart
The purpose of charting the basal body temperatures is to find out when ovulation occurs. To some women, the chart will be “text-book” meaning the lows will be in the 97.0 F range and the highs in the 98.0 range, with a .4 rise the day after ovulation and a 14 day luteal phase (the time from ovulation to menstruation or the start of the next cycle.) This is not always the case, though, and for the majority of women who experience some variations on their temperature charts, there are possible explanations.
