How often do you take your temperature?

When I am somewhere private, I take my temperature rectally just for fun. If I had a fever right now, it would be an oral reading.

I very rarely take my own temperature. I'm having a full exam tomorrow where my rectal and urethral temperature will be taken quite a few times.

The only time I get my temperature taken rectally if I'm in the local health department getting at shot or I'm coming in there sick.

If I had the time to do it, it would be every day. Because of my work schedule, I'm lucky to take it once a week. When I really do have a fever, I take it at least every few hours. My regret is that I don't take it enough. I can never get tired of taking my temp. rectally.

A As my girlfriend and I share a strong interest for RT associated with sex, it would be one or twice every week.

B. When sick, at least twice a day, morning and evening, and if I feel suddently much better or worse, just to check. Hope my gf is then avaliable to take it.

Almost every morning....hardly ever sick but do take if sick as well ....taken as birth control measure. denise

Whether I’m sick or in good health, I take my temperature at least a couple of different times per week on my own, rectally of course. And my play doc takes my rectal temperature when he gives me my check ups, which are about every 2-3 months.

Usually a couple times a month for fun and sexual reasons. I don’t think I’ve felt like I had an actual fever in 4 or 5 years.

Several times on a daily basis. If I'm feeling sick, then more. I always report the readings to my nurse.

Only if I'm feeling like I've got a fever, and that's pretty rare. I get an occasional bad headache and my temperature goes slightly above the normal range. "Normal" oral for me is in the low 98s, rectal just 99 or so. With a migraine, typically it'll jump to about 100 to 100.5, (rectal with digital). It was 100.8 at an urgent care when we were traveling in Minnesota, the nurse told me. Not sure why; there's no infection or anything else happening except a fluttery or upset stomach.

I take my temp rectally in both cases pretty often when I am into it or when I need it - not every day though

A

Almost daily

I aim for daily checking when healthy just to have a clear baseline for when something's wrong (plus it's fun!). Alas, I'm bad at waking up in the morning so I don't always have time for the temp check.

Every night before bed🍑🌡

@chelle300 Isn't it more reliable to take it when waking up?

@Pecan_nutjob not for the sole purpose of sticking something up my ass🍑🌡

Few times a week, if not more often then that

2x daily

Forgot to add that I do take it in good health and when I'm sick. Rectal is the best way to take a temperature anyways

Not often enough!

Boom.

A few times a week. Whenever the mood hits me.

I take mine daily in the morning

Every chance I get I love taking my temperature rectally while removing my diaper love the feeling of the probe going deep inside me to measure my temperature.

I take a rectal temperature almost every morning. Some days also in the evening. When I feel like it, it can take a very long time.

Only when I’m feeling feverish, and I am pretty healthy these days. I admit that during Covid, I was bordering on paranoid. I’d sometimes wake up a headache or coughing. I began keeping Vaseline and rectal thermometer in my bedside drawer. We have a digital for easy orals, but during Covid, my temps were in the butt.

A: when I’m not sick….I do when when I feel like it…..I try to take it every morning for fertility purposes….but I usually take it just whenever the mood strikes me. I use it a lot to get my husband’s attention when I want sex….it seriously turns him on and gets him in the mood! We use the rectal thermometer DURING SEX as well! 😉

B: when I’m sick….often as possible….several times a day!

Side Note: I always use a rectal thermometer….glass mercury, or digital….we have an ear one and I’m tempted to try it in my bottom….just to see if it works and just for fun! 😊

If I am in good heath, I could go months without taking it. If I have a fever, I become obsessed and take it repeatly.

Daily.

Everyday & Twice on Sundays🌡️🍑
