Correlation between serum and saliva sex hormones in young female athletes
Although it remains challenging to produce precise identification with only saliva samples for each menstrual cycle phase, results seem to show that saliva can provide a convenient substitute to serum for sex hormones in female athletes during longitudinal monitoring. This is of particular interest in this population, with the number of female athletes suffering from an altered menstrual cycle, sometimes even during regular menstruation.
