متن کاملSerum phosphorus during the menstrual cycle.
In the continuing search for a simple, noninvasive, reliable method to detect ovulation, phosphorus (P) levels have been measured in women across a menstrual cycle. Salivary P has been reported to increase significantly in women periovulatory. Reports of serum P show no such periovulatory peak. We measured serum P in nine ovulatory and two anovulatory women during one menstrual cycle. Indirect ...
متن کاملMammographic density changes during the menstrual cycle.
The ability to detect small tumors is impaired in dense mammograms. It has been suggested that the sensitivity of mammograms could be lower in mammograms obtained during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. We examined the change in mammographic density from the follicular to the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle in 11 women. Although the average increase in densities was quite small (1.2...
متن کاملInterhemispheric interaction during the menstrual cycle.
Fluctuating levels of sex hormones and high levels of progesterone (P), in particular, have been suggested to reduce interhemispheric inhibition. The present study focuses on hormone-dependent modulation of interhemispheric integration. In two versions of the Banich-Belger task, participants were asked to match letters according to their physical (e.g., A vs. A) and semantic identity (e.g., A v...
