Abstract
Peripheral blood T [thymus-derived] lymphocytes were measured in healthy [human] subjects during the various phases of the menstrual cycle. A significant decrease in T lymphocytes occurred during the menstrual period; T-lymphocyte numbers returned to the pre-levels 1 wk after the end of the menstrual period.
