Title:
Are you a regular vaper or regular smoker with a menstrual cycle?
|
| What is the purpose of the study? |
| |
Women are disproportionately affected by nicotine addiction. They have a harder time quitting, are more likely to relapse, and have greater craving for nicotine. One reason for these effects are hormones related to the menstrual cycle. Our study is looking at the effects of menstrual cycle phase (follicular phase and luteal phase) on brain activity in vapers versus smokers. We are looking for participants who are either (1) regular vapers, (2) regular smokers or (3) non-nicotine users.
