Barne’s Basal Body Temperature Test

For the Barne’s Basal Body Temperature Test, take temperature at the same time every day before getting out of bed–even to urinate. For women still having their period, you will want to do the test starting the second day of mensus because the hormone progesterone, released during certain other times of your cycle, will increase your body temperature. For men and post menopausal women take it for 4 consecutive days.
