Increased sexual activity during the midcycle portion of the human menstrual cycle.

abstract：:Many seasonally breeding vertebrate species have an associated reproductive pattern: mating behavior, gonadal activity, and peak circulating androgen levels occur simultaneously. In these species, androgens influence the expression of male mating behavior. Other species have a dissociated reproductive pattern: mating ...
