摘要: Ongoing intrinsic brain activity in resting, but awake humans is dominated by alpha oscillations. In human, individual frequency (IAF) associated with cognitive performance. Noticeable, performance and emotional tasks women menstrual cycle phase sex hormone levels, respectively. the present study, we correlated of oscillation resting phase, level, or use oral contraceptives. Electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded from 57 (aged 24.07±3.67 years) having a natural as well 22.37±2.20 using contraceptives while they sat an armchair eyes closed. Alpha related to phase. Luteal showed highest late follicular lowest IAF center frequency. Furthermore, negatively endogenous estradiol did not reveal association progesterone. Women similar early We suggest that modulate
