The women were recorded counting one to five four different times over a period of one full menstrual cycle.

The men were made to listen to all the recordings and were asked to identify which recordings were made during a woman's periods. The researchers found that men managed to identify the correct tape 35 percent of the time.

The study is published in the journal Ethology.
