Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, 36.3°C (97.34°F) is a normal body temperature. It falls within the typical normal range of 36.1°C to 37.2°C (97°F to 99°F) for adults. This temperature indicates healthy, normal physiological function.

No, 36.3°C (97.34°F) is not a fever for babies or children. It's within the normal range. A fever is typically considered to be 38°C (100.4°F) or higher in children.

36.3°C (97.34°F) measured under the arm (axillary) indicates a normal body temperature. Axillary temperatures typically read 0.5-1°C lower than core body temperature, so this reading suggests your actual core temperature is perfectly normal.

36.3°C (97.34°F) is within the normal range for newborns and is generally acceptable. However, newborns have less temperature regulation ability, so temperatures below 36°C (96.8°F) should be evaluated by a healthcare provider.

To convert 36.3°C to Fahrenheit: Multiply 36.3 by 9/5 (or 1.8) = 65.34; Add 32 to the result: 65.34 + 32 = 97.34; Final answer: 36.3°C = 97.34°F. This is a normal body temperature.

You generally don't need to worry about 36.3°C (97.34°F) itself, as it's normal. However, seek medical advice if accompanied by concerning symptoms like lethargy, difficulty breathing, poor feeding (in babies), or if temperature rapidly drops below 35.5°C.
