  Basal Body Temperature
Basal body temperature is the temperature of your body at rest.
Your body temperature rises by a small amount (0.5 to 1.0 degree Fahrenheit) at the time of ovulation, and then stays elevated for several days, due to the rise in the level of the hormone progesterone.
If you use a basal body temperature, which typically marks the units from 96 to 100 degrees with markings for each one-tenth of a degree, rather than an ordinary thermometer, it will be easier for you to distinguish the minor temperature fluctuations associated with ovulation.

Basal body temperature is the body temperature measured immediately after awakening and before any physical activity has been undertaken.
Records of basal body temperatures can be used to accurately determine if a woman is ovulating, and if the length of the post-ovulatory (luteal) phase of her menstrual cycle is sufficient to sustain a pregnancy.
Charting of basal body temperatures is used in some methods of fertility awareness, and may be used to determing the onset of post-ovulatory infertility.

 Basal Body Temp - In Determining Risk of Pregnancy
Basal Body Temperature (BBT) is your body's resting/waking temperature, normally it is used to chart a woman's fertility patterns.
As progesterone gets into the bloodstream, one of its effects is to cause the body's temperature to rise slightly, usually occurring about two days after ovulation, depending on the individual.
This change would not be noticeable with a regular fever thermometer, but with a digital or basal thermometer, the change is noticeable, and even more so when the temps are recorded on a chart.

Basal body duplication in the green alga Spermatozopsis similis was reinvestigated using GT335, an antibody binding to polyglutamylated tubulins, and antibodies directed to p210, a component of the flagellar transition region which represents the distal border of the basal body.
While basal bodies grew, most of the p210 remained at the tip of elongating basal bodies, but two or four additional spots were observed in distinct patterns near the base of the basal bodies.
In cytokinesis, basal body pairs separated and p210 was observed in a strong signal at the tip and a weaker one in the vicinity of the proximal end of each basal body.

Basal body temperature charting has been used to detect ovulation for ages.
The underlying principle of basal body temperatures is that a woman’s temperature is slightly lower during the initial phase of the menstrual cycle (when she is maturing an egg for ovulation) than it is during the latter phase of the cycle (after ovulation but prior to the next menses).
The temperature during the second part of the cycle is usually about 0.4° F to 0.6° F higher than during the first part of the cycle, and most often the basal temperature shifts from less than 98° F (prior to ovulation) to greater than 98° F (following ovulation).
