Free-living competitive racewalkers and runners with energy availability estimates of <35 kcal·kg fat-free mass(−1)·day(−1) exhibit peak serum progesterone concentrations indicative of ovulatory disturbances: a pilot study

INTRODUCTION: The release of luteinising hormone (LH) before ovulation is disrupted during a state of low energy availability (EA). However, it remains unknown whether a threshold EA exists in athletic populations to trigger ovulatory disturbances (anovulation and luteal phase deficiency) as indicat...
