I. About Body Temperature

It is a common myth that 98.6°F (37°C) is the “normal body temperature.” The truth is that 98.6°F (37°C) is an average body
temperature. Normal body temperature is actually a range that varies with age, gender, and measurement site. Body temperatures
also fluctuate through out the day, typically cooler temperatures in the morning, warmer in the afternoon, and cooling down again
in the evening. Other factors that can influence body temperature are: the patient’s recent level of activity, metabolism rate, or
medications. Normal body temperatures also tend to decrease with age.

Please see the chart below for normal temperature ranges by patient age and site. Readings from different body sites, even when
taken at the same time, should not be directly compared; body temperatures will vary by site.
