Female sexual arousal and the menstrual cycle.
Self-reports of sexual arousal were significantly affected by conditions under which they were elicited.

The "unaware" condition was operationalized by means of daily se...

Using functional magnetic resonance imaging in female subjects without premenstrual mood symptoms, we found that OFC activity to emotional linguistic stimuli varie...

However, samples have been extremely small (maximum N = 9), and analyses have not examined the interactive effects of hormones that are critical for changes in food intake in animals. The aims of the current study were to examine ovarian hormone interactions in the...
