What is this trial about?

Hormonal fluctuations present during the ovarian cycle may have a strong influence on physiological and psychological aspects on physical performance in women. The aspects surrounding performance and ovarian cycles in women during different phases of the cycle, are still current and should be debated in the literature, as the available evidence has conflicting results. In addition to the above, new ergogenic methods have been studied to improve the sports scenario in different populations. Research on the use of ergogenic electrophysical resources so that hormonal effects may possibly be mitigated, allowing women to use this resource and improving their physical performance is still scarce in the current literature.
