It is also referred to as pyrexia and it could be more than between 37.2 and 38.3 °C (99.0 and 100.9 °F) in humans, there is not a single agreed-upon upper limit. <em>Temperature is regulated in the hypothalamus.</em> Fever helps your immune system fight infections by speeding up the functioning of cells and it makes it harder for bacteria and viruses to thrive in the body.
