OVULATION DIGITAL THERMOMETER
INSTRUCTIONS AND CHARTS
Please read these instructions carefully to ensure accurate
temperatures and safe operation.
I. WHAT IS A BASAL TEMPERATURE?
A basal temperature is the normal body temperature of a healthy person immediately upon
awakening after a restful night's sleep. More precisely, it is the body temperature measured under
so-called "basal conditions" (12 hours after eating, after a restful sleep, no exercise, no emotional
excitement, normal room temperature).
For optimum accuracy, your basal temperature should be taken at the same time every morning
upon waking. Changes in basal temperature are related to changes in the female reproductive
cycle. By taking your basal temperature daily and charting it, you can notice slight changes and
patterns. These charts of your basal temperature, in addition to other information, can help you
understand your menstrual cycle and ovulation.The basal temperature method can be used to help
in family planning. Charting of temperature and prediction of ovulation can be used to time sexual
intercourse during fertile days to aid in increasing the likelihood of pregnancy.
II. CHARTING YOUR BASAL TEMPERATURE
By charting your basal temperature daily, you can see a pattern and notice the changes that
occur in every ovulation cycle. You can record your basal temperature on the enclosed charts.
Keeping a charted record for at least three months will usually provide the information you need
to determine your approximate day of ovulation during a regular menstrual cycle. Most women
keep both the Ovulation Digital Thermometer and Temperature Tracking Chart at their bedsides
for convenience.

    III. HOW TO TAKE ACCURATE BASAL TEMPERATURES To obtain an accurate basal temperature, you must take your temperature when you first awake in the morning. For best results, this waking temperature should be taken at the same time each morning. Since any activity may tend to raise your temperature, do not get out of bed until you have taken your basal temperature.

  • Page 9 Estrogen also causes some glands in the cervix to secrete a mucus discharge that is necessary for fertility. This mucus changes the environment in the vagina to make it more favorable to sperm life and provides a medium in which the sperm move upward into the uterus. The mucus typically starts as a sticky substance.

    F. OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION Remember that the thermometer is designed only to help determine when ovulation has occurred. Mucus observations, as noted in Section VIII "THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE CYCLE", can also be helpful when recorded as shown on the sample chart. Notation of these changes, in addition to your temperature pattern, will assist your physician or counselor in providing you with proper guidance.
