Basal body temperature is the temperature when the body reaches the resting phase or does not perform any activity. Basal body temperature is influenced by factors such as the quality of a person's length of sleep, stress, and menstrual cycle patterns. The benefit of checking and monitoring basal body temperature for a woman is to determine when a woman starts to enter the ovulation period, making it easier for couples who want a target pregnancy. The measurement method was carried out in the morning right after waking up using a thermometer flanked in the armpit area by applying three repetitions of measurements within a period of two months with the number of sample participants of 10 cadet students of military biology study program with an age range of 19-21 years. This type of research is carried out observationally and analytically using longitudinal data. The analysis used in this study was by conducting a statistical mathematical model trial by analyzing the p-value. The results showed that in the paired test there was a significant influence of the relationship of basal body temperature on the menstrual cycle at the time before menstruation and when menstruation. The researcher's suggestion is to conduct further research with larger participants of samples and the presence of sample variations in observations because not all biologists do significant research with the statistical method.References
