Does the menstrual cycle influence the determinants of endurance performance?
Our recent #FENDURA publication was published in print this month on @MSSEonline. Here is a infographic to help translate some of our findings.

Honoured to present at LJMUs Women's Physiology and Nutrition Symposium earlier this week. Great talks and discussions throughout the day and lot of new perspectives! Thank you for having me!
Yesterday's Women's Physiology and Nutrition Symposium 2025 brought together researchers, practitioners, and students for a day of insightful discussion around the latest developments in female physiology and nutrition.
The programme featured a keynote from Professor Julie Greeves OBE, research presentations, expert panels, and poster sessions, all highlighting important and emerging work in the field.
For more details about the symposium and talk synopses, visit the UMU website➡️ ljmu.ac.uk/conferences/women…
A big thank you to @KelsieOJohnson and the organising committee for delivering such a valuable and engaging event💫
We recently created a fun handout for participants in the #FENDURA project
After the study, each person received it along with personalised feedback on their menstrual cycle characteristics - Maybe someone here also finds it interesting🤗

Great start to the new year!
So nice to see that people are interested in these topics and eager to read our work. 👏

I may be (heavily) biased but I feel this paper never got the attention it deserves.

We tested the agreement between the traditional 3-step method and a revised "2-step" method for the identification of menstrual disturbances in an athletic cohort

This could be a powerful tool in sport practice for the early identification of menstrual disturbances (without need for advanced blood testing) as well as in research… depending on the research question of course ;)

Not sure who needs to see this today- but here is the first ever high resolution video of ovulation from start to finish (in a mouse follicle). Pretty neat 🤓

Thanks to @kellymcnulty and @periodofperiod for summarising the findings from our recent #FENDURA publication so elegantly💃
Sharing their recent Instagram post to X (although limited to 4 of 7 slides) ☺️

First time experiencing "graphical interpretation": live drawing on stage during a presentation. So cool!
Grateful to share some thoughts from research --> practice this past weekend in Austria 🇦🇹🇩🇪🇨🇭

Happy to share the latest publication from my PhD investigating the effects of the menstrual cycle on post-exercise sleep and recovery🏃♀️🚴♀️😴
We found small changes in objective sleep quality in the mid-luteal phase but no effect on perceived recovery.

Everyone's saying it: "We need more research on female athletes, periods, contraception, training, performance & health". Well, we're DOING it!
Please help us by signing up to this study/re-posting, as we're looking to involve > 200 female athletes here. tinyurl.com/study1ab
A must read providing important perspectives for current/future research initiatives.
"Best practice guidelines should not deter us from pursuing MC research, but rather encourage us to prioritise questions that are meaningful not only to researchers, but also to end-users"🙌
Excited to share my 1st PhD publication - we asked 🇨🇦 female athletes what is important to them re #MenstrualCycle in sport
Read it here: bit.ly/3BUALuN
TONS of new research so we need to ensure our Qs are relevant. Main topics:
-Training/performance
-Culture
-Health

When the manuscript you've been working on for 1.5 years is accepted on the same day as your co-authors wedding 💒✨😍 🙌

I discussed the findings from our recent #FENDURA publication with @NRKno & explain why the "Super-Week" trend may be misleading.
Nice to see our work shared nationally (...even if it is in the context of a TikTok trend 😅)
