Trying to Get Pregnant

alcohol and bbt

I have searched here on tb and Google and found different answers. I know everybody is different but I would like to know each of your experiences with this. I know alcohol effects bbt, but my questions is, does your temp increase or decrease when you have more than just 1 or 2 drinks? TIA

Re: alcohol and bbt

  • Mine goes up, but I have to drink quite a bit (5+ drinks within 5 hours of temping) for it to be of any significance.
    Son: Jackson, 11/02/06, stillborn due to PPROM and IUGR. Over the next ten years we had 9 miscarriages from 8-14 weeks. On May 18, 2016 my daughter, Ridley, was born. We're OADNBC.
  • Mine seems to actually drop after drinking if I'm temping at the same time. I try to limit around O for that reason as it seems enough to throw it off a few tenths of a degree.

  • Thanks ladies! I think I'm with @sister13 as I think my bbt drops after drinking. I just found it strange that most of my ''googling'' the majority of bbts increase.
    On 10dpo my temps went from 98.6 to 98.0. I'm chalking it up to drinking 100% I guess the good thing is I just scored 5 free wondfos from amazon!! happy Oct. 1st bday to me!! LOL

  • I haven't really noticed a pattern with drinking and my temperature changing. I haven't been totally trashed since TTC though, so maybe my body just isn't affected by low to moderate amounts of alcohol.

  • My temp is usually not affected by drinking unless I had a lot and went to bed drunk.

  • Mine will rise pretty noticeably (0.5 degree or so) the morning after I have enough to get tipsy. For me, I think it's because alcohol tends to disrupt my sleep quite a bit, so I don't get as much uninterrupted sleep after drinking. If your temp is dropping, maybe it's because you sleep more soundly after drinking?

  • I am curious about the answer to this one - my chart is a hot mess because of drinking around O time this month.

  • Mine definitely goes up - significantly. But each day I've had a rise I've had more than just a drink or two the night before, so I'm sure that's a big factor.
  • My temp goes up.
