    My temperature is lower then normal, but I feel feverish?
    Hello. I'm a 20 year old girl, active and all around healthy.

    My 'normal' body temperature is almost always exactly 98.6. The past for days or so, my temperature has been from 97-97.5. I have also been feeling very feverish(chills, body aches, headaches, sore muscles, stuffy sinuses etc). My body also feels very warm, to the point where I start sweating, but every single time I check my temperature its always around 97.5. I have tried different thermometers to see if mine is broken, but I get the same reading of 97-97.5. I'm really worried. I have this fear then my temperature will keep dropping and I'll eventually die, unrealistic I know. Anyway, if anyone has any incite then please help. ):

    Also, I don't know if this will help, but I'm married and my husband and I have unprotected sex, no birth control or anything, so if you think this sounds like pregnancy symptoms, then don't hesitate to say so. /:

    The problems you are having - stuffy nose, feverish, chills - are not related to pregnancy.

    You most probably are fighting off an infection. I don't think a drop of approximately one degree is cause for concern, nor is a raised temperature of one degree.

    Low body temperature CAN be a sign that you are ovulating.
