Electroencephalographic dynamics of individual alpha peak frequency during the female ovarian-menstrual cycle

Abstract

Electroencephalographic brain dynamics during the menstrual, follicular, preovulatory, ovulatory, luteal and premenstrual phases of the female ovarian-menstrual cycle were analyzed. All subjects were divided into 3 groups according to individual alpha peak frequency and reaction to rhythmical photostimulation. Data obtained confirm the necessity to carry out experimental and clinical psychophysiological studies of women in the phases of the ovarian-menstrual cycle.
