Introduction
Under normal circumstances, the human body temperature ranges between 36.1°C and 37.2°C, so a body temperature of 37.2°C is generally considered normal. The normal body temperature typically falls between 36.3°C and 37.2°C, and the exact range may vary due to individual differences, environmental factors, physiological states, and measurement methods.
Under normal circumstances, the human body's normal temperature ranges between 36.1°C and 37.2°C, so a body temperature of 37.2°C is generally considered normal. Specific details are as follows:
The normal human body temperature typically falls between 36.3°C and 37.2°C. However, the exact normal range may vary due to individual differences, environmental factors, physiological states, and measurement methods. For example, women may experience slight fluctuations in body temperature during their menstrual cycle. Normal temperature values also differ depending on the measurement method: oral temperature normally ranges from 36.3°C to 37.2°C, axillary (underarm) temperature ranges from 36.0°C to 37.0°C, and rectal temperature ranges from 36.5°C to 37.7°C. Therefore, a temperature of 37.2°C is within the normal range.
In summary, if a patient experiences any discomfort or symptoms, it is recommended to seek timely medical attention at a hospital to prevent serious consequences.
