Abstract
Throughout the years, the menstrual cycle has been implicated as a cause of a multiplicity of effects ranging from biochemical to psychosocial. An effect which is often assumed is that women perform both physical and mental tasks less efficiently during certain phases of the menstrual cycle. The evidence for this assumption is, however, far from clear. This paper provides a short critical review of the experimental results bearing on this matter and their implication for working conditions for womenKeywords
