Vicenza - Biometric research on cervical mucus: ideal and atipical cycles

Colombo Bernardo (1990)

Data come from the Family Counselling of Vicenza and Padova. Daily observations on cervical mucus were collected from women that contacted the Counselling. The study produced a database of more than 250 women and more of 2500 menstrual cycles. For each cycle, informations about quality and type of mucus were collected. Cycles were splitted into two groups: the first group was called "Ideal" and included cycles with well specified charachteristics; the second group was called "Atipical" and included cycles that missed at least one of those charachteristics. Data also allowed to analyse cervical mucus intervals by studying their length and the distance between consecutive cycles.

The collected data are in three files:
1) women: general information on the women recorded at their first entry into the study
2) cycle1: with information on each cycle for cycles of length up to 50 days
3) cycle2: as for cycle1 but for cycles of length above 50 days
