Question

Why do I feel hot, but my temperature is low?

Answer 1

Body temperature:

1. The typical temperature found in humans is the normal human body temperature.
2. A person's normal body temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit or 37 degrees Celsius.

People may feel hot without temperature for various reasons:

1. As the second law of thermodynamics says, heat always flows from the hotter object to the colder object.
2. Our body loses its heat continuously to the surroundings.
3. The heat that our body gives out would not be the same as it does during comfortable temperatures.
4. When the person feels hot, then our body would automatically compensate for it by sweating as the sweating removes heat from our body and it also prevents the body temperature from reaching its dangerous levels.
5. At times, decreased estrogen levels also may cause our body's thermostat to become more sensitive to slight changes in body temperature.
