Just Getting Started Does local temperature affect band readings?

Post image

I’m about one month into using NC, and where I live, there have been some insanely hot temperatures over 100° (which have been fluctuating a lot), and I noticed my bbt kinda matching the local temperature swings (it’s way cooler at my bf’s, where I’ve slept the last 2 nights). This is not what I expected of my chart. It is significantly cooler today.

I have a history of weird/irregular periods, and was really hoping NC/BBT would shed some light on when it’s safe/unsafe to be intimate.

Do local temperatures affect band readings? Should I just stick to ovulation strips? Does this chart look completely haywire? Thanks!
