Abstract
The Bioself 110 electronic basal body temperature (BBT) measurement device was employed in 18 women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). This microcomputer-operated device records, charts and accurately analyzes the mean temperature measurements. These temperature recordings were used in addition to transvaginal ovarian sonography and serum estradiol and progesterone levels. The BBT rise correlated significantly (p < 0.0002) with progesterone elevation following human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration. It is suggested that this electronic device may be used as an additional tool in the detection of premature progesterone secretion in IVF cycles.
