Some children get cold more often during the winter.
The average human body temperature is 36.6, but deviations of 0.5 degrees in either direction are considered normal. In addition, the child's temperature changes during the day (the maximum is recorded around 18:00, and the minimum is at 04:00 in the morning).
As writes Real clear science, how the child feels cold is influenced by anatomical features. For example, boys suffer less from cold temperatures; they generate more heat into the environment due to a higher percentage of muscle mass.
The percentage of fat also matters, girls and women tend to have a thicker layer of fat on their arms and legs than male boys, it is more difficult for the heat from the muscles to reach the skin.Another point is hormones.
In girls and young women, sex hormones can affect how fever feels. And hypothyroidism - a disease of the thyroid gland - is manifested by a constant feeling of cold due to inhibition of processes.
In short, most often the child is freezing due to physiological reasons, only sometimes it can be a symptom of problems with hormones.
