Does a pregnant woman have a fever of 36.7 degrees1

  A pregnant woman's body temperature of 36.7 degrees is not considered a fever. Generally speaking, a pregnant woman's body temperature around 37 degrees is a symptom. If the body temperature continues to be above 37 degrees, it may be a fever, and the symptoms of fever vary in severity. Different measures need to be taken for different degrees of fever.

  If a pregnant woman has a fever, but it is not very serious, she can be treated with some physical therapies, such as drinking more water, taking measures to keep warm and avoid the cold, and strengthening nutrient intake. Generally, as long as active care is taken, recovery can be very good. At the same time, it is also possible to restore normal body temperature by taking a warm water bath.

  If the body temperature of a pregnant woman is too high, it will have a certain impact on the fetus, especially in the early stages of pregnancy. The impact on the fetus will be more obvious, which will damage the development of the embryo and cause damage to the central nervous system of the fetus. Therefore, when the fever is severe, pregnant women should seek medical treatment in a timely manner.
