Basal body temperature monitoring is a way to track ovulation. And it's where every morning, you wake up and take your temperature before you get up out of bed to even go to the bathroom, and before you take a drink or eat anything. And if you do this faithfully, you should notice a slight elevation in your temperature on the day after ovulation - about 0.5 degrees Fahrenheit. And this elevation in temperature will persist until your next period begins, unless you're pregnant, and then it stays slightly elevated. You mentioned that you;re waking up at night, and that you feel really hot and thirsty, and you're wondering if this has something to do with ovulation. And the slight increase that happens with ovulation happens after, and it's not really enough to make you wake up and feel really hot. So this is not a symptom of ovulation.
I recommend looking into other causes first. Maybe you have on too many layers, or maybe you're using a lot of extra blankets, or if you live in a hot and humid climate, then it would be normal to wake up at night and feel really warm. Imbalances in hormones can also cause you to have night sweats, and so if this is a persistent problem or you're concerned, bring it up with your doctor, and they can ask you more specific questions, and determine if further investigation or treatments are warranted. Good luck with everything, and if you have any other questions for me in the future, feel free to ask them on our Facebook page at [ Ссылка ], and recommend us to your friends and family too.
