Normal Body Temperature. Body temperature is usually measured by a thermometer placed in the mouth, the rectum, or the auditory canal (for tympanic membrane temperature). The normal oral temperature is 37Â° Celsius (98.6Â° Fahrenheit); rectally, it is 37.3Â° Celsius (99.2Â° Fahrenheit).The tympanic membrane temperature is a direct reflection of the body's core temperature.These values are based on a statistical average.he normal oral temperature is 37Â° Celsius (98.6Â° Fahrenheit); rectally, it is 37.3Â° Celsius (99.2Â° Fahrenheit).
