Body temperature diagnostics

A method for determining a progesterone response in a mammal or human being, the method comprising:

• determining, for a plurality of first time intervals, a continuous series of temperature data points relating to a body temperature;
• determining, in the series of data points, for the plurality of first time intervals, differences between a temperature maximum and a temperature minimum to obtain a plurality of temperature amplitudes;
• determining a series of temperature amplitudes from the plurality of temperature amplitudes;
• and
• determining if a first portion of the series of temperature amplitudes varies from a second portion of the series of temperature amplitudes indicating a change in the level of active progesterone in the mammal or human being.

A system for determining a status of a biomarker in a human being or mammal, the system comprising:

• a temperature measurement device for determining and recording a series of temperature data points relating to a body temperature of a female;
• an analyzing tool for analyzing the series of temperature data points, wherein the series of temperature data points is transferred from the temperature measurement device to the analyzing tool;
• the analyzing tool performing the steps of:
• determining, for a plurality of first time intervals, a continuous series of temperature data points relating to a body temperature;
• determining a series of representative temperature values for the plurality of first time intervals and subtracting the series of representative temperature values from the continuous series of temperature data points relating to the body temperature to obtain a series of temperature fluctuations;
• determining, in the series of temperature fluctuations, for the plurality of first time intervals, a difference between a temperature maximum and a temperature minimum to obtain a plurality of temperature amplitudes;
• determining a series of temperature amplitudes from the plurality of temperature amplitudes;
• and
• determining if a first portion of the series of temperature amplitudes varies from a second portion of the series of temperature amplitudes indicating a change in the biomarker status.
