Chronic gastroduodenal symptoms disproportionately affect females of childbearing age; however, the effect of menstrual cycling on gastric electrophysiology is poorly defined. To establish the effect of the menstrual cycle on gastric electrophysiology, healthy subjects underwent non-invasive Body Surface Gastric Mapping (BSGM; 8x8 array), with validated symptom logging App (Gastric Alimetry, New Zealand). Participants were premenopausal females in follicular (n=26) and luteal phases (n=18). Postmenopausal females (n=30) and males (n=51) were controls. Principal gastric frequency (PGF), BMI-adjusted amplitude, Gastric Alimetry Rhythm Index (GA-RI), fasted-fed amplitude ratio (ff-AR), meal response curves, and symptom burden were analysed. Menstrual cycle-related electrophysiological changes were then transferred to an established anatomically-accurate computational gastric fluid dynamics model (meal viscosity 0.1 Pas), to predict the impact on gastric mixing and emptying. PGF was significantly higher in the luteal vs. follicular phase (mean 3.21 cpm, SD (0.17) vs. 2.94 cpm, SD (0.17), p<0.001) and vs. males (3.01 cpm, SD (0.2), p<0.001). In the computational model, this translated to 8.1% higher gastric mixing strength and 5.3% faster gastric emptying for luteal versus follicular phases. Postmenopausal females also exhibited higher PGF than females in the follicular phase (3.10 cpm, SD (0.24) vs. 2.94 cpm, SD (0.17), p=0.01), and higher BMI-adjusted amplitude (40.7 uV (33.02-52.58) vs. 29.6 uV (26.15-39.65), p<0.001), GA-RI (0.60 (0.48-0.73) vs. 0.43 (0.30-0.60), p=0.005), and ff-AR (2.51 (1.79-3.47) vs. 1.48 (1.21-2.17), p=0.001) than males. There were no differences in symptoms. These results define variations in gastric electrophysiology with regard to human menstrual cycling and menopause.
