Abstract
Women with a history of trauma exposure reported daily affective experiences over a 10-day period spanning the early follicular (low estradiol) and late follicular (high estradiol) menstrual cycle phases. Women reported less positive valence ratings and greater PTSD symptom severity during the early versus late follicular phase.
