    Sub-Normal Temps..What to do?

    I’ve been working with a doctor for TRT for over 6 months now. My main complaint has always been that I’m hot/sweaty, sweat easily and am constantly thirsty. The doctor had me do a 4-day temperature challenge, which involved me taking my body temperature when I first wake up and every three hours thereafter. As you can see from the below chart, my temps are well below normal. He’s scratching his head a bit since my blood work does not indicate a problem.

    If all of my numbers are good, what would this indicate?


    Thanks all.

    Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday
    7:30 96.4 96.3 96.9 95.9
    10:30 97.0 95.6 96.1 97.1
    1:30 96.8 96.8 96.3 96.8
    4:30 96.9 96.2 96.8 95.8

    Bass, they should be 98.6 or somewhat close.

    Yes, everything checks out fine on blood work.

    Everything is perfect. This is coming from a anti-aging doc, not an endo or gp.


    I'm wondering if it's Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome (not disease). Anyone have experience with this?

    Yeah for sure. I've used 3 different ones including the one recommended by stopthethroidmadness

    I have a consult with him on Monday to discuss and can't wait.

    I'd say my symptoms have gotten worse with age. The reason I got on TRT was because I thought it was my answer. Although TRT has helped with some fatigue issues, the problem is still there.

    Subtemp, do you still have your BW prior to being placed on TRT, may be helpful if you post it.

    Agree, especially on the thyroid, as some of these places have the ranges all over the place. A lot of these docs will see a result that is "within range", and call it good. I see E2 ranges from 6 to 45, but anyone here with just a little experience would not want to be at the low or high end of what they call "normal".

    Subtemp, i am assuming you took your temperature orally, how about a different method, maybe your mouth doesn't hold heat well!
