BBT how accurate is it actually?

Question

How accurate is monitoring your bbt to see when your ovulating? I don't like ovulation tests and have had a lot of trouble with the results so I'm not wasting money on them anymore! So I've been monitoring my cm and bbt.

Answer

This is what my chart looks like as of today :)

Answer

Here's an example pic I found. You can tell where the dip is in ovulation. And where it starts to fall closer to period.

Answer

Thank you that's really helpful! I had a major dip the other day then it jumped up from 36 on the 28th to 36.5 on the 29th so hoping it keeps rising :)

Answer

I think bbt is way more accurate than opk's. You can pinpoint your dip and rise in temperature. With another bonus being if your temperature doesn't drop again before your expected period it could be a sign of being pregnant. Since I started I'm saving on hpts because I'd always start testing wayyy too early and sometimes 3 times a day! Lol
