No, 36.3 degrees Celsius (C) is considered normal.

Your temperature can be measured with a thermometer in the mouth, ear, or rectum, or under the armpit. When the temperature is measured in the mouth (orally):

  • A temperature between 97 to 99 degrees Fahrenheit (F), or 36.1 to 37.2 degrees Celsius (C), is considered normal.
  • A temperature of 100 to 102 degrees F (37.8 to 38.9 degrees C) is usually called a low-grade fever.
  • A temperature of 103 degrees F (39.5 degrees C) or higher is called a high-grade fever.

Generally, oral temperatures of 102 degrees F (38.9 degrees C) or higher are fevers that may be more serious.

Temperatures measured in the ear or rectum are higher than oral temperatures by one half to 1 degree F (about one half degree C), and temperatures measured in the armpit are lower by one half to 1 degree F (about one half degree C).
