Resting values of respiratory measures.

Follicular phase Ovulatory phase
VE (L/min) 9.5 ± 2.5 8.9 ± 1.5 *
RR (breaths/min) 14 ± 5 15 ± 5
VT (mL) 732 ± 273 619 ± 202 *
PETCO2 (mmHg) 36.8 ± 3.9 36.8 ± 3.2
RER 0.89 ± 0.11 0.89 ± 0.07

VE: minute ventilation; RR: respiratory rate; VT: tidal volume; PETCO2: partial pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide; RER; respiratory exchange ratio.
