ovulation body temperature
Before you ovulate, your basal body temperature is usually about 97 to 97.5 F, although those numbers can vary from person to person. During ovulation, your body releases the hormone progesterone, which brings on a slightly raised temperature a day or two later -- usually by 0.5 degrees. Your temperature will probably stay high until your next cycle begins. If you become pregnant during that cycle, your temperature will stay up beyond that.
