Why Do My Body Temperature Fluctuate between Cold and Hot?

Some people experience alternating sensations of cold and heat in their bodies, which is a relatively common phenomenon. This may be due to infections caused by viruses, bacteria, mycoplasma, chlamydia, etc. If these symptoms occur during menopause, it is possible that they are caused by menopausal syndrome, and it is recommended to undergo a sex hormone test. In such cases, it is advisable to maintain good rest habits, drink plenty of warm water, avoid exposure to cold, keep warm, and consume a diet rich in beans.

When experiencing alternating sensations of cold and heat in the body, the first step is to check your temperature to determine if there is a fever or if it is just a subjective sensation. If there is an abnormality in body temperature, it is possible that there is an infection caused by viruses, bacteria, mycoplasma, chlamydia, etc. In such cases, it is recommended to rest appropriately, drink plenty of water, keep warm, and undergo antimicrobial treatment if necessary. Additionally, if these symptoms occur during menopause, it is possible that they are caused by menopausal syndrome, and it is recommended to undergo a sex hormone test. In terms of diet, it is advisable to consume a moderate amount of bean products, and if necessary, take medication to regulate menopausal symptoms.

Mycoplasma are a type of prokaryotic microorganisms that lack cell walls, are highly pleomorphic, can pass through filters, and can be cultured and proliferated in artificial media. They are widely distributed in humans and animals and are mostly non-pathogenic. However, certain mycoplasma species can cause disease in humans, including Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma hominis, and Mycoplasma genitalium. If mycoplasma infection is suspected, further testing is required. Common clinical methods include isolation and culture, serological testing, etc. If mycoplasma are observed in isolation and culture, a positive result can be reported, which is considered a confirmed diagnosis. However, this type of testing can be challenging, with a low positive rate. Mycoplasma are facultative anaerobic microorganisms, and their colonies require 7-14 days to grow. In contrast, colonies of Ureaplasma urealyticum are small and grow quickly, usually within 24-48 hours.
