It's not uncommon to get a fever when you have your period. Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do - it's all part of being a woman!
Can Menstruation Affect My Body Temperature?
It can, yes - many women notice an increase in body temperature in the lead-up to, and during, their period. It's perfectly normal, so don't worry about it!
What Other Things Might I Experience When I Have My Period?
They might be able to prescribe something to help you, or investigate what's causing you to have these problems in the first place.
It's also worth considering the possibility that the fever isn't related to your period at all - you might just be getting sick.
Your immune system is usually a little bit weaker when you're menstruating, so it is possible that you've caught a virus or something.
Hope you feel better soon!
