Basel body temps & dosing

[Insomania]

Does anyone do Basel body temps?

My FT3 is in the optimal zone on NDT Armour but I’m still getting low basel body temps. Early this cycle I had some 36.7s, from day 10 I’ve been getting 36.3/36.4 even up to date 18. (Usually temp increases in luteal phase from ovulation though it’s possible at 50yo I’m not ovulating anymore.)

I had a fantastic 6 weeks on this dose then it dipped a little.

I’m doing 3 days per week on 1 1/2 grains and 4 days per week on 1 1/4 grain.

Previous dose was 1 1/2 grains daily and FT3 went over range and I was ‘over cooked.’

Are the basel body temps a sign I need a little more or should I discount because it’s in luteal phase.

Hi, I know my basal temperature was the same regardless of what my cycle was. My periods were always all over the show, never had a 28 day thing and now I'm post menopause, so I'm no help on that, sorry.

I've always had low basal temperature until recently. My usual waking temp was 35.81. I knew this was why my metabolism was on the floor, even though my endo always dismissed it was a problem. I gave up mentioning it over the years.

Over the last year I got it up to 36.21 ish but still knew it wasn't enough. I'm now up to 36.42 so nearly there. My long term symptoms are finally lessening but I knowing I'm not fully there yet.

So for me, I know my waking temp correlates with how how symptomatic I am.
