Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study explores the dynamic interplay between body awareness and body perception across the menstrual cycle's phases, emphasizing hormonal influences on these dimensions. Conducted with 43 female participants aged 18-35, this research highlights significant variability in body-related experiences tied to hormonal fluctuations.

The study aims to address the gap in understanding how menstrual cycle phases impact women's body awareness-sensitivity to physiological states-and body perception, encompassing self-image and physical self-evaluation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Methods: Participants were divided based on menstrual phases: follicular, ovulatory, and luteal. Hormonal fluctuations were tracked through menstrual calendars and ovulation kits. Tools such as the Body Awareness Questionnaire (BAQ) and Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ) assessed participants' awareness and perception. Other assessments included the Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMS), Menstruation Attitude Scale (MAS), and physical activity tracking through the IPAQ-SF questionnaire.

Limitations The reliance on self-reported data and single-cycle assessments are noted as constraints, suggesting the need for longitudinal studies for greater robustness.
