Temperature readings vary among individuals. A normal temperature  
refers to each individuals average temperature while they are well. Normal  
average temperatures range from 97°F/36.1°C to 100°F/37.7°C when  
taken orally. Oral, underarm, and rectal temperatures vary by approximately 1°F  
(0.5°C). A rectal temperature is considered your real or “core” body tem-  
perature. A rectal temperature is 1°F/0.5°C higher than an oral reading  
and an underarm temperature is 1°F/0.5°C lower than an oral reading.
