I have always temped oral,but next cycle I am really thinking about doing vaginal. Does anyone know if temps are higher virginal, also the benefits of doing vaginal then oral?

I don't know if they are higher, but I've heard they are more accurate and not so Up and Down for some ladies.

That is what my prob is, they are up and down big time. Some mornings I wake up with my mouth open so I know that affects it big time. THANKS hun!

If you look at my earlier charts as compared to the last couple charts, you can see a difference. I started temping orally, as most people do, but found that my chart was really rocky. I was still able to figure out my O date, but it was sometimes difficult. I sleep with my mouth open most of the time and I think that was my issue.

I think my temps are a bit higher now that I'm temping vaginally, but I don't think it's a huge difference. I do like temping vaginally better because I think it is more accurate. Good luck

I temp vaginally as well. and my temps are much more steady than before and they do seem to be a degree or two higher.

Ha thanks hun it was nice to see charts done oral compared to vaginal. I see what you mean by them being more steady.
THANKS ladies, I think vaginal temping next cycle I am going to do!

I am really thinking about making the switch too.
