The ideal temperature for sleep is typically between 60°F and 67°F for most adults, says Martina Vendrame, M.D., neurologist and sleep medicine specialist at Lehigh Valley Health Network.
And as one 2023 study demonstrates, for adults who typically sleep with room temperatures between 68 and 77 degrees Fahrenheit, increasing the temperature to between 77 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit ...
New research finds the optimal room temperature range for sleeping for older adults. Here, experts explain the best temperature for sleep.
Basal body temperature (BBT or BTP) is the lowest body temperature attained during rest (usually during sleep). It is usually estimated by a temperature measurement immediately after awakening and before any physical activity has been undertaken. This will lead to a somewhat higher value than the true BBT.
The use of a fan or air conditioning may somewhat reduce the temperature and increase comfort. If the temperature reaches the extremely high level of hyperpyrexia , aggressive cooling is required (generally produced mechanically via conduction by applying numerous ice packs across most of the body or direct submersion in ice water ).

A 2022 study on the effect of heat on young people found that the critical wet-bulb temperature at which heat stress can no longer be compensated, T wb,crit, in young, healthy adults performing tasks at modest metabolic rates mimicking basic activities of daily life was much lower than the 35°C usually assumed, at about 30.55°C in 36–40°C ...
For adults aged 65 and over, the best bedroom temperature for sleep might be warmer than you think, according to a new study. Try keeping it in this range. New study reveals best bedroom ...
The temperature reading depends on which part of the body is being measured. The typical daytime temperatures among healthy adults are as follows: Temperature in the rectum (rectal), vagina, or in the ear (tympanic) is about 37.5 °C (99.5 °F) [20] [medical citation needed] Temperature in the mouth (oral) is about 36.8 °C (98.2 °F) [12]
