Thanks for consulting me online. For your assistance, Dr. Sumaira Kousar MD welcomes you here today.


Basal body temperature doesn't show up Pregnancy (conception). It actually is a very rough estimation of the time of Ovulation (the highly fertile time when there is a release of the mature Graffian follicle egg into the ovary and Fallopian tube.

There is a slight rise in temperature on that time and some females also feel having lower abdominal cramping pains and mood swings.


It is not more than a 1-2 degree rise of temperature showing the rough estimate of time of ovulation. Ovum remains viable for upto 72 hours and an intercourse during these days give more chances for conceiving.


I am pretty much hopeful that it concludes all the concerns you had. Kindly let me know if you still have any doubts or additional health queries as there is always room for suspicions when we consult virtually. I am available 24/7 to answer any of your follow-up health queries. Give a positive feedback. It boosts us up to work even harder for patients.
