Normal body temperature readings will vary within these ranges due to multi-
factorial elements, such as taking medication, age, physical activity, time of day and
even a menstrual cycle, can cause the body temperature to vary by one degree.
In adults, the following temperatures suggest that someone has a fever:
•
at least 100.4°F (38°C) is a fever
•
above 103.1°F (39.5°C) is a high fever
•
above 105.8°F (41°C) is a very high fever
As explained in the table above, the indication of fever may vary depending on the
measurement type.
A temperature of 38°- 40°C (100.4–104°F) caused by short-term illnesses should
not cause significant harm in otherwise healthy adults. However, a moderate fever
can be more worrying for a person with existing heart or lung issues.
