Study suggests female athletes react faster on day they ovulate
The Guardian
|October 10, 2025
Female athletes have reaction times 80 milliseconds faster and make fewer mistakes on the day they ovulate, according to a study.
Researchers at University College London (UCL) studied how different stages of the menstrual cycle and levels of activity affected brain function.
They tracked 54 women aged 18-40 not using hormone-based contraception and grouped them according to how much exercise they took: inactive (not taking part in any structured exercise); recreationally active (at least two hours of structured exercise a week); competing in any sport at club level; and elite (competing in any sport at national or international level).
