DE2449165A1 - Woman's thermometer for plotting basal temperature curve - has cord for insertion and removal in vagina like tampon - Google Patents

Abstract

The woman's clinical thermometer is enclosed on all sides by a protective jacket made of plastic which can hold the thermometer in such a way as to provide a watertight seal. The thermometer can be taken out again without the protective jacket having to be touched. Using the cord attached to it, the protective jacket with thermometer, which has been inserted before the woman goes to sleep, can be removed again from the vagina in the morning. A far greater degree of accuracy is achieved because the temperature is measured exactly as soon as the woman wakes up. No disruptions arise which can occur in the five-minute period of measurement.

Description

Women's thermometer to create an asal temperature curve, with cord or with a protective cover and cord closed on all sides. Purpose of the invention: "None Method allows good conclusions to be drawn about the course of a cycle (e.g. even after months Taking the pill) or about the cause of cycle disorders, such as the wake-up temperature curve (Quote from Gyn. "Kern" p. 240) The purpose of the invention is to keep this temperature in the morning to be able to read immediately.

Previous technology: - Knock down normal clinical thermometer in the evening ready. Add a pen.

- When you wake up in the morning, the first thing to do is to take the thermometer for five minutes introduce into the intestine. You must not get up beforehand, otherwise the temperature will increase changes.

- Read the temperature after five minutes and immediately enter the enclosed Enter the form.

Presentation of the shortcomings of the previous technology: For women, the little ones Have children (especially at this age, the wake-up temperature curve is special Interest) it is very difficult to stay in bed for another five minutes if one children start screaming or need help.

Likewise, these five minutes can be too long when the phone rings or the dog has to be taken outside.

But even a missing measurement sets the value of the method strong down. As a result, only a very small percentage of women actually do it manage to create a flawless wake-up temperature curve.

Technical task: Immediate reading of the body temperature after the Wake up! This object is achieved in that a known thermometer the torm is given a tampon, and a string is attached to it. The thermometer Must have the following properties: 1. Thermometer made of plastic 2. Thermometer that shows the current temperature 3. The thermometer must have a device that prevents this temperature from changing after removal.

This thermometer can be placed in the vagina before going to sleep and then immediately after waking up and reading the wake-up temperature will.

Because this thermometer is only used once for hygienic reasons can be made, the following further inventive proposal is made: The thermometer takes on a cylindrical shape (A3). It can be placed in a plastic cap (4) and there on the ground (at 8). Then the plastic cap (5) is put on and the thermometer is thus sealed in a watertight manner.

The thermometer is removed in the morning with thread (6).

The free end is fixed with tweezers or the enclosed forceps (9), then Remove the plastic cap (5) and clean the thermometer outdoors Take hold of the end, remove the plastic cap (4) on the bottom and throw it away.

This eliminates the need to clean what has been introduced into the body cavity Thermometer, likewise it does not have to be touched.

Public interest in the invention "Pure method leaves so good Conclusions about the course of a cycle (e.g. after taking the pill for months!) or about the cause of cycle disorders, such as the wake-up temperature curve. II From this quote it can be seen how important it would be to have a process with which this can be determined, firstly, precisely and, secondly, conveniently.

ad. 1 The method I propose means a far greater one Accuracy, since the exact temperature is measured when you wake up (it is not necessary all disruptive factors that previously occurred in the five-minute period of the measurement can.

ad. 2. So far it has been difficult to make a reliable curve, If, for example, a child cries in the morning, the phone rings or the dog goes outside got to.

So until now it has only been possible for particularly motivated women to have one to make a reliable curve. The proposed method should suit every "average woman" make it possible to do the same.

"The inestimable advantage of biological contraception is there in the fact that undisturbed cohabitation at certain times without physical and psychological Impairments to both partners are possible.

One will be more aware of these benefits again if it is now an exact, inexpensive (in terms of time and money) method is the wake-up temperature to determine. It will be possible for many women, on non-indifferent means (Pill, IUD, etc.).

Claims (2)

Protection claims: 1. Women's fever thermometer, characterized in that it is due to its shape and an attached cord, just like a lamp, into the The vagina can be inserted and removed from it. 2. All-round sealing protective cover made of plastic, provided with a cord, characterized in that it is a correspondingly shaped thermometer waterproof, without touching the protective cover again can be removed from it. With the help of the cord, the AhEniS can go to sleep inserted protective cover with thermometer removed from vagina in the morning will.
