“…This procedure has two advantages: (1) the inter-individual variability in estradiol and progesterone levels covers the whole range in hormone levels (from minimum to maximum); and (2) At first glance, dynamic changes in IHTT across the menstrual cycle are compatible with the hypothesis that sex hormone-mediated variations in FCA can be explained as hormone-modulated variations in the degree of interhemispheric coupling (Hausmann & Güntürkün, 2000). As discussed above, Hausmann and Güntürkün (2000) suggested that the increase in progesterone and/or estradiol (see Hausmann & Bayer, 2010 there is evidence that IHTT is directly related to the structural integrity of the corpus callosum (e.g. Westerhausen et al, 2006;Whitford et al, 2011), the extent to which interhemispheric inhibition and IHTT share the same transcallosal mechanisms needs further consideration.…”

“…However, sex differences in FCAs are not always found (e.g. Sommer, Aleman, Bouma, & Kahn, 2004), partly because sex hormonal factors have been largely ignored (Hausmann, 2010;Hausmann & Bayer, 2010). In fact, considerable evidence has accumulated that suggests that FCAs in women are modulated by fluctuations in gonadal steroid hormones across the menstrual cycle (e.g.…”

“…For example, it has been shown that sex differences in FCAs partly depend on the cycle phase in which female participants were tested (e.g. Hausmann & Güntürkün, 2000;Hausmann, Becker, Gather, Güntürkün, 2002;Weis, Hausmann, Stoffers, Sturm, 2011;Weis, et al, 2008; for review see: Hausmann & Bayer, 2010). Specifically, the majority of these studies suggest that sex differences in hemispheric asymmetries do not exist (or are at least significantly reduced) when women were tested during the menstrual phase.…”

“…While lateralisation is stable in men, it fluctuates within relatively short time periods across the menstrual cycle in women (for a review, see Hausmann & Bayer, 2010). Indeed, a number of neuropsychological studies, across different modalities and cognitive processes, have demonstrated reduced lateralisation during cycle phases associated with high levels of estradiol during the follicular phase (e.g., Holländer et al, 2005;Weis et al, 2008) or high levels of both estradiol and progesterone during the luteal phase (e.g.…”
