Figure 1 Bar graph showing representative example of case and eight consecutive normal menstrual cycles. Bar length is menstrual cycle length in days (start of first bleeding to start of first bleeding). The mean menstrual cycle length in this case was 27.3 days, and the within-individual variance was 1.4 days. Arrows show the day of LH peak for each cycle (highest LH concentration, value is concentration) or presumed ovulatory window. The mean day of LH peak was 13.5 days, and the within-individual variance was 8 days.
