Is it pointless for me to check BBT if I drink?

Question

First month TTC and I already use opk. My husband and I love our nightly beers and wines with our Netflix shows. Is it pointless for me to even track my bbt if I have drinks daily? I’ve seen lots of posts about people saying they saw “spikes” when they had drinks the night before....
And yes, alcohol will be completely cut out the day I get pregnant 🙅🏻‍♀️🙅🏻‍♀️

Answer

The only way to know if your bbt is impacted by alcohol is to keep temping. I never saw an outlier temp when I drank.

Answer

Personally, when I was ttc I stopped drinking so I didn’t have the desire anymore once I got pregnant. So it may not be a bad idea to find a substitute. Like non alcoholic drinks, I’d have virgin pinacolodas, sparkling cider, etc :) but to answer your question, it can affect BBt and can sometimes affect ovulation tests depending on when you take them and the brand :)

Answer

They do say to not drink if your ttc but each to there own. It does affect it!
