"About Wrist Temperature
Your wrist temperature is a measurement related to your body's temperature taken by your Apple Watch while you're asleep. Your body temperature naturally fluctuates and can vary each night due to your diet and exercise, alcohol consumption, sleep environment, or physiological factors such as menstrual cycles and illness. After about 5 nights, your Apple Watch will determine your baseline wrist temperature and look for nightly changes to it.
If you use Cycle Tracking, your wrist temperature can also be used to provide retrospective ovulation estimates and improve period predictions.
Here's what you need
How your wrist temperature is measured
Apple Watch Series 8 and Apple Watch Ultra have 2 temperature sensors—one on the back crystal, near your skin, and another just under the display. While you sleep, Apple Watch samples your temperature every five seconds. This design improves accuracy by reducing bias from the outside environment.
Advanced algorithms then use this data to provide an aggregate for each night that you can view as relative changes from your established baseline temperature in the Health app.
Things you should know
These steps may help. Please let us know if you have further questions.
Take care.
