Normal temp is 36.5 to 37.5 degree Celsius or 97.7-99.5 degrees Fahrenheit

Answer:

There is no "normal" body temperature. It varies by person, age, time of day and location that the temperature is taken.

Most people state that the "normal" body temperature is 98.6°F (37°C). This is an average of normal body temperature measured orally. A person;s temperature may actually be 1°F (0.6°C) or more above this. Also, your normal body temperature changes by as much as 1°F (0.6°C) throughout the day. For women body temperature may be higher or lower when a she is ovulating or having her menstrual period. This is often sed to determine the most fertile period for women wishing to conceive.

A rectal (most accurate) or ear (tympanic membrane) temperature reading is slightly higher than an oral temperature reading. A temperature taken in the armpit is slightly lower than an oral temperature reading.
