High temperatures are usually caused by some sort of infection, be it viral or bacterial. A high temperature indicates the body is warming in an attempt to thwart the disease. Low temperatures, on the other hand, that are not related to exposure to severe cold are usually related to hormone levels, specifically thyroid hormone levels. A body temperature below 98.2 upon rising can indicate a hypothyroid, or low thyroid hormone state.
