Introduction It has yet to be explained why female athletes appear to suffer more often from non‐contact ligament injuries during the first half of the menstrual cycle. Fluctuations in balance, caused by impaired proprioception due to increased fluid retention, may be relevant factors contributing to this anomaly in distribution. The aim of this study was therefore to uncover relationships between dynamic stability, proprioception and fluid retention in association with the menstrual cycle as a possible explanation for the observed …
