What temperature is too high in an adult male?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Same For Both Sexes: In an adult, an oral temperature over 100 degrees f (37.8 c) is considered a fever. Depending on the individual and other medical problems they may have, temperatures over 102 -104 could be considered dangerous, if prolonged.
