Modification of circadian body temperature rhythm during the luteal menstrual phase: role of melatonin
Open accessAbstract
In women during early follicular phase (FP), the rise of melatonin at night accounts for 40% of the nocturnal core body temperature (Tc) decline. In seven normal-cycling women, the circadian rhythms of Tc and melatonin of the FP were compared with those of the luteal phase (LP). In addition, in both phases the Tc response to daytime melatonin administration was investigated. Melatonin levels were comparable during the two menstrual phases, but the nocturnal melatonin onset was delayed by 90 min in the LP (P < 0.01). This was accompanied by a delay of the nadir of the Tc circadian rhythm (P < 0.002), a 0.3 degrees C elevation (P < 0.005) of the mean 24-h value, and a 40% blunting (P < 0.002) of the amplitude. This attenuation of circadian Tc in LP women was replicated in two estrogen-treated hypogonadal women by the administration of medroxyprogesterone acetate. The daytime administration of melatonin (2.5 mg) decreased Tc during the FP (P < 0.01) but was ineffective in the LP. Present data indicate that in LP, in association with high progesterone levels, an attenuated and phase-delayed circadian Tc rhythm may, in part, be due to a reduced effect of melatonin.

“…sleep characteristics during abstinence and across the menstrual cycle is a reasonable hypothesis given the evidence that progesterone affects circadian rhythms and sleep(Baker and Driver, 2007; Cagnacci et al., 1996; Moore-Ede et al., 1982), and is markedly elevated during the luteal phase.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
