Constant High Core Body Temperature/Not Fever
I am a 32 year old female, recently (January) off the birth control pill suffering from a core body temperature that always lies within the range of 99.0-99.6
I never had this problem until getting off the pill, and actually have always felt more cold than warm. I feel constantly warm, and if it is hot outside I hate it, I feel too hot. When others are comfortable I feel HOT.
I had my thyroid checked and it is fine.
My obgyn has no answers for me but to say it sounds similar to pre-menopausal symptoms (feeling hot).
She said a possible imbalance in the hormones from being on the pill could maybe affect me, but by now (being off the pill since January) my hormones should have righted themselves.
My primary doctor said it is nothing to worry about since it isn't too high... it is not a fever... but it is really annoying and uncomfortable and I can't possibly be the only one who has this problem???
Clearly something is differnt than before or not functioning as well... what could it be???

Thank you to everyone for sharing their experiences with this phenomenon.
I share the problem of a high core temperature which causes sweating, shortness of breath, increase heart rate and general discomfort.
Two things that have helped me control this have been breathing exercises (meditation), and consistent cardiovascular exercise.
You can learn to control your body temperature and "cool-yourself-down" if you practice it. For me, it's a lot about breathing and feeling the sweat evaporate off of my skin. Feel your pulse, close your eyes and focus on your heart-rate as you breath slowly.
I hope this helps. Great thread, thank you to the OP for starting it.

I am 29 years old have been dealing with the same problem since I was nine shortly be my period started. I had the noise bleeds too. Have yet to figure out a way to fix this I used to get excused to he nurse so I could get an ice pack to cool down. They school worked with me and my parents with the problem since no one could give me any answers as to what was causing the problem. Hope this at least help you at school. The nurse allowed me to keep a bag with extra clothes and deodorant.
you poor thing...are you still there...i would like to talk with you some, if possible.
My daughter is only 10years old and she have to leave the classroom due to extreme body tempretures. What could this be? If the summer comes her nose bleeds.
Hi, i'm only 14 and i've had that problem all my life. My body temperature is constantly around 100-101 degrees! it ruins my sleep and i can't wear anything but t-shirts, even in the winter. The doctors can't see what's wrong, and says that it probably dosn't matter, but i'm worried! I'm afraid that there's something wrong, and i've heard that high body temperature can cause faster aging of the cells! Besides that i have fever several times through the day. Like one minute i'm burning hot(104-106) and my friends says that i'm sick and should go home, and the next i'm at my 'normal' temperature. it is extremely irritating. Don't know what to do.
I am 20, my body always feels like i have a fever, any one that touches me always ask if i am sick . i am healty,i don't get sick often, i dont feel warm or sweat or anything like that my skin is just hot , i dont know if something is wrong with me ,its been this way like forever.
