Now, a new study from the Cincinnati Sports Medicine and Orthopedics Center
finds that women are much more likely to suffer these ligament injuries during
ovulation-- which occurs 10 to 14 days after a woman's period.
The researchers speculate that the injuries may happen because estrogen
levels, and some other related hormones are at their highest during this time,
and act as muscle relaxants and possibly change the chemical compositions of
the woman's muscles and ligaments.
