The follicular phase is described as a period of rising estrogen, rising energy, improved mood, focus, and strength. Ovulation is presented as a roughly three-day peak in stress tolerance, metabolism, neurotransmitters, and physical performance. The article divides the menstrual cycle into four neurophysiological states. Menstruation is characterized by low estrogen and progesterone and a global physiological downshift. The luteal phase is described as well suited for learning, habit formation, deep study, and continuing education.
