🔔 Our September Newsletter Is Live!

In this issue, Are Women Still ‘Mute Bodies’, or Are We Actually Being Heard?—Dr. Jerilynn C. Prior reflects on how women’s voices continue to be silenced in medical journals and reviews. She also shares how CeMCOR is working to change that—by amplifying women’s lived experiences through our research and studies, and with the help of mainstream media and journalists who are speaking openly about ovulation and menstrual cycles.

NEWS! We’re excited to share our latest study on Feelings of Self Worth and Menstrual Cycle Phases, published in PLOS One. Conducted by Dr. Jerilynn C. Prior, Dr. Nahid Shirazian, Sonia Shirin, and Dhani Kalidasan this comprehensive, prospective study of daily Feeling of Self-Worth over 1-year in 53 initially normally ovulatory women showed:

👉 No consistent relationship with any sociodemographic, body size or menstrual/ovulation variable.
👉 Feeling of Self-Worth was associated with other positive experiences such as interest in s*x and feeling of energy. It was also negatively correlated with depression.

As the first study to explore self-worth using validated ovulation-tracking methods, this challenges common assumptions about emotional shifts across the menstrual cycle.
