Maternal Thermoregulation

Maternal Thermoregulation is a physiological regulatory mechanism that maintains core body temperature within a species-specific range during pregnancy, distinguished by dynamic adaptations in thermal set points, metabolic rate, and vasomotor responses influenced by hormonal, circulatory, and fetal-placental factors.
