Does your BBT increase or decrease when your ovulating?

Question

I have been taking my temp like normal as soon as I get it up, but im in my ovulation days and now my temp has dropped about 4 degrees every morning!  Should I take a test or wait till my temp goes back up?  This is so confusing ?

Answer

Mine have dropped below my lowest temp for three days I'm on cd13 today and all opks have been negative...I read that your temp can dip anywhere from 3 days before ov to 2 days after ov and should not be used to determine when ovulation will take place....all I know is temps must rise above cover line .2 to .4 for at least 3 consecutive days to confirm that you have o'd.   This temp rise can happen anywhere from one day after o to 3 days after o....it's alot of info and can truly be confusing:-(....hoping my temp shoots up soon and I get a positive opk...merry christmas:-)

Answer

It lowers before you ovulate then spikes above a cover line after you ovulate :) good luck!

Answer

Take a test? Like an OPK? 
Temps can drop before you ovulate then Spike up the next day showing you have ovulated. Mine dropped to its lowest point ever yesterday morning !!
