    The menstrual cycle

    Area of Science:

    • Exercise Physiology
    • Reproductive Endocrinology

    Background:

    • The menstrual cycle influences various physiological processes.
    • Understanding hormonal effects on exercise is crucial for female athletes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate menstrual cycle phase effects on ventilatory response and exercise performance.
    • To compare the luteal phase with the follicular phase.

    Main Methods:

    • Studied eight normally menstruating women.
    • Assessed ventilatory response (VR) to hypercapnia and hypoxia.
    • Measured maximal oxygen uptake, exercise duration, and cardiac output.

    Main Results:

    • Resting VR was greater in the luteal phase.
    • No significant differences in maximal exercise performance metrics were observed.

  • Increased reliance on fat metabolism suggested by lower R values and lactate levels.

    • Conclusions:

    • Ventilatory parameters change across the menstrual cycle.
    • Maximal exercise performance remains unaffected by menstrual cycle phase.
