Abstract

In this paper, we carried out research into the prefrontal hemodynamics corresponding to changes in a women's auditory function during a time of pregnancy and child raising. Our experimental results not only demonstrated that postnatal women within one and a half years of their childbearing might have acute ears as compared to pregnant and nonpregnant, but also revealed the hemispheric asymmetry in their prefrontal hemodynamics.
