Less than normal

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thank You for contacting HCM. My name is Dr Muhammad Ali Rauf & i will look into your problem.

I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way. Normal body temperature should be around 98.6°F (37°C). Your temperature may actually be 1°F (0.6°C) or more above or below 98.6°F (37°C). Your temperature is less than the normal and there is quite possibility of error. I would suggest you to record your temperature thrice a day for 3 days & compare.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
