Abstract
Women experience mood disorders at a higher rate than men. This may be related to changing levels of ovarian hormones, which might influence intrinsic brain connectivity and consequently mood and cognition. Through resting state analyses across the menstrual cycle, we observed significant hormone-modulated change of brain connectivity within salience network.
