    So I’ve been eating for heat for about a month now coming off the back of almost a year in recovery for a pretty serious bout of anorexia, I’ve been monitoring my temps for the month and they are now sitting pretty solidly at or above 97 most of the time but its coming up to my period and they’ve dropped pretty dramatically (barely pushing 96 even after a whole day of solid eating) is this normal or does it indicate that I still have to lie around refeeding like a boss?

    That’s completely normal! When women are trying to get pregnant and chart their BBT (basal body temperature) they are told to expect that dip right before their period.

    Thanks, Saisrice … I had wondered that too!

    You have lower temps before ovulation and it dips back down right before or on the day of your period (generally, for some it happens after the start of their period).
