Yes, I completely agree with this point. I hope I made it clear that I like thinking about data like this exclusively for personal “outside view”-y reflection. So things like, “Oh I haven’t gotten anything done this morning, maybe it’s because of (x cycle variable), so maybe I can do (y intervention) to fix things”. And then, generalizing to other women only in the sense that they might find it helpful to think similar thoughts.
They didn’t mention sex drive, but the binary variable “had sex” did come up in the study. However individual fluctuations cancelled out any patterns beyond “more sex on weekends” and “less sex during periods”.
