“…[13] Estrogen increases sympathetic baroreflex sensitivity and also has a prolonged stimulatory action on CRH gene promoter and central non-adrenergic system which indicate changes in sympathetic activity responses significantly more during premenstrual late luteal phase (LL) phase than post-menstrual early follicular phase. [14,15] Kale and Kathole [4] observed that increased activity of sympathetic system during pre-menstrual phase is due to pre-menstrual stress. The cause of this stress is increase in peripheral resistance causing pre-capillary resistance.…”

“…Particularly hormonal imbalance affects not only physical health but also psychological health, manifesting as problems ranging from depression to panic disorders. [3,4] The key organs involved in these behavioral and psychological changes in response to hormonal imbalance during pre-menstrual phase, pregnancy, and menopause are limbic system and hypothalamus. [2] Hypothalamus acts integrating center for nervous and hormonal regulation.…”

Background: Women undergo many types of behavioral and hormonal changes, especially during reproductive life. Besides reproductive changes, there occur cyclical fluctuations in various functions of body systems. Autonomic nervous system provides physiological adaptive background for these changes. In these cyclical changes, pre-menstrual phase stress can be assessed by sympathetic function tests to avoid further cardiovascular complications. Aims and Objectives: The aim of the study is to carry out sympathetic function tests during pre-menstrual phase and post-menstrual phase of healthy young women. Materials and Methods: The study was carried out in 50 healthy females of age between 18 and 25 years. They undergo the sympathetic function tests such as pulse rate, blood pressure (BP), orthostatic variation on BP, and cold pressor test. Statistical analysis was done by student paired t-test. Result: Response to various sympathetic tests were altered in pre-menstrual phase as compared to that of post-menstrual phase reflecting highly significant increase in the sympathetic activity. Conclusion: Neurohormonal changes and pre-menstrual stress during the pre-menstrual phase are interrelated to each other and increases the sympathetic activity.

Background: The sex hormones, estrogen, and progesterone, as well as the gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone, and follicle-stimulating hormone produced from the anterior pituitary, govern the three stages of the menstrual cycle: menstrual, follicular, and luteal. Hormone fluctuations cause changes in autonomic function. There have been relatively few studies that show autonomic function modification throughout various periods of the menstrual cycle. Aim and Objectives: The current study was undertaken to investigate the difference in mean parasympathetic autonomic characteristics between the proliferative and secretory stages of the menstrual cycle. Materials and Methods: A total of 120 healthy young adult female volunteers were recruited among Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences, Kalinga Institute of Nursing Sciences, and Kalinga Institute of Dental Sciences students. The study eliminated 20 students who were in the bleeding phase of their cycle. The electrocardiogram was captured, and parasympathetic parameters were determined using the fully automated CANWin instrument in the Department of Physiology. The data of the abovementioned parameters were compiled, tabulated, and entered into Microsoft Excel 2013 and statistically analyzed using STATA software 15.1. Results: The subjects’ mean ages, heights, and weights were 18.9 ± 0.70 years, 156.6 ± 5.25 cm, and 53.7 ± 8.63 kg, respectively. The mean resting heart rate in the secretory phase was substantially greater than in the proliferative phase, indicating sympathetic dominance. The 30:15 ratio between proliferative and secretory stages. The mean E: I ratio calculated from the slow deep breathing maneuver reveals a statistically significant difference between the proliferative and secretory phases. Conclusion: During the secretory phase, there is a considerable rise in parasympathetic activity among the individuals in the current study. Changes in parasympathetic activity throughout the follicular and secretory stages of the menstrual cycle may be caused by fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone levels.
