Lessons from experimental disruption of estrous cycles and behaviors
Article Abstract:
Research shows that during estrous cycles in women decreased metabolic fuel supply inhibits their sexual behavior analogous to nutritional effects on reproductive physiology. Data indicate that short-term availability of oxidizable metabolic fuel is the primary metabolic indicator rather than body size, composition, or fatness. Stored body fat serves as an energy source during lean times.

Lessons from experimental disruptions of the menstrual cycle in humans and monkeys
Article Abstract:
Research demonstrates that the exercise-associated menstrual disorders (EAMD) occurs due to an imbalance between energy intake and energy expenditure as revealed by a comparative study in humans and monkeys. Data indicate that the onset of EAMD varies between individuals.

Effects of short-term strenuous endurance exercise upon corpus luteum function
Article Abstract:
The disruptive effect of short-term strenuous endurance exercise on sedentary women's corpus luteum function is described. Aprupt onset of exercise altered luteal functions regardless of the respective menstrual phases involved.
