Fever during ovulation!

[eme1ieh]

Hi!

Can fever during ovulation kill the sperm inside my body?
My fever was around 100,4F, the same night i ovulated and the day after. I feel like im out this month.

When I conceived the twins I was really sick with the stomach flu and also had a fever around 100 just after O. It didn't seem to matter! Fx it doesn't for you.

Thanks for your answer!
But if you hade fever the days after ovulation the egg was already fertilized? :/
I had fever during ovulation, maybe before the sperm reached the egg. Maybe a fertilized egg isn't that sensible like a sperm before fertilization?
What temperature does sperm die? :/

It was literally hours after O so I think it's possible the eggs didn't fertilize until after I started getting sick. It's possible I had a fever earlier and just didn't know bc I hadn't checked. I was VERY sick, literally the sickest I've ever been. I almost went to the hospital for dehydration bc I threw up everything, even tiny sips of water. I only checked my temp once I started throwing up and often a fever starts before with the flu. But I don't know for sure.

I also don't know the exact temperature sperm die at...but I think it is unlikely that ALL the sperm would die at 100-101, which isn't THAT high of a fever. Most likely only some sperm died, but not enough to prevent conception. Being sick sways pink, and so does low sperm count. So just consider this month a very strong pink sway! I truly think you have a good shot at pregnancy.

Thanks maidentomother! I hope you're right!

We bd cd12, 14, 15 and 16. Or if it was cd11, 13, 14, 15 and 16. I think i ovulated cd15-16. (My ovulation always seems to happen cd16) I'm temping, except this time around ovulation because the fever. :/ I also had ovulation pain cd15 and 16.

Men are taking hot baths and sitting in hot tubs as part of their sways and still getting wives pregnant. Don't worry about this.

It is temps over 103 that are harmful to eggs and sperm. Adults rarely ever get temps this high.

With those attempts and that timing you should have plenty of sperm. I really think you being sick & feverish is GOOD for your sway, since you had multiple attempts which sways blue.
