Abstract
Female subjects preferred higher room temperatures during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle than during the follicular phase, and also in the morning as compared with the evening. The results could be interpreted in terms of the establishment of a higher setpoint in core temperature during the luteal phase and in the morning.
