Constantly High BBT Temps?

Question

I'm on 150mg clomid for 7 days CD1-7 and 500mg metformin. I have pcos. My waking temps are taken at 7am every morning. This cycle for the first 3 days of my period my temps were within normal range of 97.5-97.8. Then on cd4 my temp jumped up above 98, ranging from 98.2 to 98.6. Is this because of my meds? Can that cause a temp spike like that before ovulation? Also since starting these meds I have hot flashes throughout the day and night on and off. And I've been tossing and turning early in the morning alot because of getting so hot. So I figured its the combination of all the above causing weird temps. But I would like some opinions. I see my dr. this week so i plan on asking him, but i was just wondering if anyone else experienced this? Thank you!

Answer 1

i have no experience about clomid, but i had my temperature up high for two weeks. it was 99 point someting, it was quite high. and then I took a pregnancy test, and it came back positive!:). i didn't check my bbt after that.

good luck

Answer 2

I am on Clomid too, and I feel you on the hot flashes they suck.  I would say your temp is up because of the tossing an turning in the early morning.  My doc told me to use OPK instead of BBT while on Clomid.  I would give that a try.

Good luck, and stay cool!
