Abstract in brief

  • This study found that women's vocal pitch increases during the high-fertility phase of their menstrual cycle, especially just before ovulation, indicating that voice can serve as a cue of fertility.
  • The research measured various vocal features and confirmed that pitch change was most pronounced during the days closest to ovulation when fertility is highest, suggesting that women’s voices subtly signal their reproductive status.
  • Overall, the results support the idea that human voices may convey fertility cues, similar to many nonhuman species, possibly influencing perceptions of femininity and attractiveness during the fertile window.]
