It is too bad that what the medical community considers to be "normal" is
based on the average physiology of *males*.

But I also suspect that everyone's BBT (basal body temp, ie; temp upon
awakening) fluctuates somewhat.

Mine was over 98.0 once...when I had a fever from a plugged milk duct! But
it has been higher since I have been doing yoga regularly. I't also been
easier to get out of bed in the morning.
