Abstract
In 10 women subjects whose ascorbic acid metabolism was studied for a total of 23 periods of from 4 to 6 weeks duration, during which 30 menstrual periods occurred, no evidence was found of unusual variability in either urinary excretion of ascorbic acid or fasting plasma ascorbic acid values associated with the menstrual cycle.Keywords
