    Hormonal fluctuations during the menstrual cycle, specifically progesterone and estradiol levels, are linked to premenstrual changes (PMC). Changes in these hormones, and their rates of change, correlate with mood and behavioral shifts.

    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive endocrinology
    • Neuroendocrinology
    • Women's health

    Background:

    • Premenstrual changes (PMC) encompass a range of mood and behavioral symptoms experienced by women during their menstrual cycle.
    • The precise biological mechanisms underlying PMC, particularly the role of ovarian hormones, require further elucidation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the temporal relationship between plasma levels of estradiol and progesterone and the manifestation of premenstrual changes (PMC).
    • To identify specific hormonal dynamics, including rates of change, associated with the severity and type of clinical features observed in PMC.

    Main Methods:

    • Plasma levels of estradiol and progesterone were monitored throughout the menstrual cycle in 17 women experiencing varying degrees of PMC.
    • Statistical analyses focused on the temporal dynamics of hormone levels, including peak levels, rates of change, and ratios between hormone rates of change.

    Main Results:

    • Specific clinical features of PMC were positively associated with peak progesterone levels and its decreasing rate over time.
    • A significant time lag of 4-7 days was observed between changes in plasma progesterone and alterations in clinical features.
    • The ratio of the rates of decrease of progesterone to estradiol also showed a positive association with certain PMC features.
    • The rate of change in estradiol levels demonstrated a moderate association with clinical PMC.

    Conclusions:

    • The study suggests that the dynamic, time-related interplay between gonadal hormones (estradiol and progesterone) and biological changes is crucial for understanding mood and behavioral alterations in PMC.
    • Further research is recommended to explore this complex, time-dependent relationship in a diversified manner.
